"The law applies to everyone equally. What does not apply equally to everybody is access to the very best, most expensive legal advice."

Well, Well, welcome to the real world at last Steve. So at last you admit that "equality" in this form of society is a myth.
Money rules everything, every facet, even the law, but unless you want to see social chaos we make the best of it.

Do you really think granting EVERYONE access to the best, most expensive legal representation, the best most expensive education, the best most expensive health care is possible?
