MODERATORS
People are in prisons for insanely stupid reasons, why shouldn't the people abusing them for their own gain not deserve punishment?
Even theft is a whole different ballgame than actual indentured servitude and abuse of power.
Who cares about theft?
Wage theft in the US totals approximately 50 billion dollars per year. That's more than all burglaries, robberies, and car thefts, combined.
That's one white-collar crime. How many people behind bars stand convicted of it?
