You're so out of touch with reality that it amazes me. Yeah, everybody can invest... except that some people, in fact, the majority of people has no money to do so after they paid their living costs. Some people, having more money than their living, and a few of them has far more than a country could spend on food, shelter, basic healthcare and education.

Everybody can invest, the law allow them to do so. But of course, people can also lawfully die in hunger in most of the countries on Earth.

I heard this tired argument so many times. Having a theoretical possibility by some abstract freedom does not translate at all widespread ability to use that freedom. There is a group in society who can afford to invest and thus own basically the entire economy.

There's an "investor class", but that is called more precisely the capitalist class. Because they run the show, they have massive assets at their disposal that produces enough dividend that they can re-invest and thus blocking the access to all newly created wealth. Sometimes there's some reshuffle of course, but socially the class division is untouched.

That is great :)

True, I pay approx. $800 (12 x €56) a year for basic TV cable + 50 mbps cable broadband.

In this case you may consider having a new gaming console an unnecessary luxury?

You can buy a used, but perfectly usable and cheap windows XP/7 laptop from your local Craigslist or ebay. Re-image it regularly.

Nice. Does Deep Freeze restores all the photos that a guest accidentally deleted to make some space on disk to download malware?

Sure, multiple squads of Russian police are on their way now to arrest mavook! Just tell them that the only evidence that he is the creator of flashback is his forum signature.

You are sick if you equate minor inconvenience with your precious Mac computer and a loss of human life.

Personal insults are signs of emotional immaturity. To answer your question -- somebody may just have a wad of money just because they like to have it this way. Not because they run a business. Did those drug traffickers say to Anaya that they need a hidden compartment for a particular business purpose? No, and it is not his business to ask.

I like your "an bullshit bromide" phrase. Is it a new internet meme that I have missed?

McCracken took no pity on him. “He makes the drug world work,” she told the judge. “He is equivalent to what I consider somewhat of a genius that takes cocaine and molds them into shapes so that they can be moved in plain sight I don’t feel bad at all today. In fact, this is a pleasure. And Mr. Anaya says that he’s part of this big group of people that puts in compartments. He’s part of this secret society, I guess. Well, I hope he tells a friend, because we’re coming for them.”

"If you hide something, that is because you are a criminal"

McCracken [the prosecutor]: "I don’t feel bad at all today. In fact, this is a pleasure. And Mr. Anaya says that he’s part of this big group of people that puts in compartments. He’s part of this secret society, I guess. Well, I hope he tells a friend, because we’re coming for them.”

> he demonstrated that he believed the money was ill gotten

I still do not get it. This proves what exactly? The craftsman suspected that the customer may be a criminal. This does NOT make him a co-conspirator in a drug smuggling operation.

"But Anaya resisted his court-appointed lawyer’s advice to plead guilty; he still couldn’t fathom how building traps made him a drug trafficker, and he was confident that a jury would sympathize with his plight."

Logical, I would think. Only the jury in Kanzas (not Anaya's state, BTW) did not sympathize for some reason. Why would that be?

And so? Having a bit of cash is illegal? Did he have to immediately call the police?

On what basis should have he refused to do his job? "Oh, I don't know, I cannot do it because you may be a drug dealer, probably". Great way to treat a customer who may have won a fortune in Las-Vegas.
