Do you think, that the average person could show up late for a court date, drive with a suspended license, and then be released from custody? An average person would be immediately arrested.
I think what angers alot of Americans is that the wealthy pay few taxes, don’t do any of the dying in wartime, and get special treatment when they commit a crime.
For me the anger comes when, with all the problems going on in this dangerous world, the press seems to think that, this spoiled little rich brat deserves all this attention.

This is an incorrect statement. According to the Internal Revenue Service from last years tax reports, the top 1% of income earners pay 36.89% of income taxes. The top 50% of income earners pay 96.70% of income taxes.
