              Yeah, but that’s because of an “old boys club” looking out for their members, and limited liability companies protecting directors from the consequences of their direction. Those white collar criminals should suffer the consequences of their crimes: they are deliberate and malicious.

                  Good for you.

                  isn’t that what happens with white collar crime?

                  That was you.

                  So, yes. You.
