Someone like Ginni Thomas who demanded that state officials throw out legitimate ballots will never be prosecuted because of who she is. Rich people in high places rarely get prosecuted unless they’re especially blatant—think of Bernie Madoff, Leona Helmsley (of “only the little people pay taxes” fame), Martha Stewart, and the Enron gang.

White collar crime pays in the US because so few are ever held accountable.
