I will never, ever understand our #justicesystem. This woman stole 3 MILLION dollars from 2 #seattle non profit orgs - literally stealing from the poor - to gamble and take extravagant vacations and gets a 3 year sentence? That’s it?! Many folks have gotten a lot more time for a lot less. What the hell?!

If anything deserves to be harshly punished, it’s #whitecollarcrime

@hollybrigstocke OFC not.

#WhiteCollarCrime is prosecuted far less - if at all - than #VictimlessCrimes like "illegal entry" "overstaying on visa" or drug offenses...

We gonna get prison reform out of the white harvard pansey-panzer Wutan Kclan after we lock a few of them up in staaaaate pokies….. i bet. white collar godoooooownnnnnn. it’s a sunday night prelim to a goddamn work week, office government employee driven takedown. #byedon sounds like #biden to me.

Like in #1860s. we are watching #history, and #economics.

So many people think #Musk is a genius. I could never see it. But with this stunning stroke of marketing brilliance, a maneuver none of us could have anticipated and few of us can still comprehend, he has simultaneously rescued #Twitter from oblivion and cemented his eternal claim to utter intellectual superiority.

This made me laugh for hours. I still can't believe it. My work was blatantly ripped off. Normally that's not funny. But when it's the Gardaí doing it, all you can do is laugh.
My sign for County Wicklow from 9 years ago vs the new Garda sign on Howth head today. 😂 lads, seriously now.

If you're ever talking to someone who's 'tough on crime' and has no sympathy for any poor kid caught up in a bad crowd, ask them how they feel about the fact that no solicitor or estate agent has ever gone to prison for facilitating the #Russian takeover of the London property market?

These are the people who do actual damage to our society and have helped bring war to our doorstep. But nobody cares cos they're middle class.

Fines are just the state taking its cut when someone else's scam is uncovered. they never take enough from the culprits to truly create a punitive effect as the money is recouped in a single business quarter.

#republicans are #pro #whitecollarcrime

They will send a young mother to jail for stealing food to feed her kids, but #gop members of #congress intervene in a case involving an illegal payoff.

Correct me if I am wrong, but is threatening a District Attorney in any way, shape, or form against the law?

Why the US should arrest, prosecute, and jail white collar criminals more often than it does, #254:

Letting them continue their crimes for decades and then get elected to public office where they are corrupt and self-serving is a far worse outcome.

And trying to hold them accountable *after* they've been elected is much harder and worse for the country

Is a stock buyback guaranteed to increase market cap?

Alternative form of the question: Is it always possible for a corporation to use it's insider knowledge to time its stock buybacks so as to increase its own market cap? And if so, why isn't that an illegal form of creating fake value?

I can understand that fewer shares reduce the supply and increase the stock market price, but what is really going on there?

#stocks #corporateCancer #whitecollarcrime #buybacks

#SteveReedMP jumps on blue collar crimes; compulsory family intervention being the answer. Is this really the problem? What about the scurge of hidden #WhiteCollarCrime? What might #Labour do about that? #PoliticalThinking #NickRobinson #BBCr4

My 2020's prediction for the next ten years is that there WILL be a replay of the 1975 #ChurchCommittee with #SocialMedia & #BubbledSocialMedia discussions and how #CI's have driven this to unsustantial levels AGAIN, since 1975, the multiple #WhiteCollarCrime st #SocialMediaCompanies trying to do coverups on their #CI plays on the levels of #crime and #espionage for personal profit is going to catapult those caught into the spotlight, notably, #DJTsHandler. #Soon. 👀👀📰🗞️📡🛰️📺
