Is justice blind...?

        ... Or it turns a blind eye to certain matters?

        It never ceases to amaze me how easyly certain politicians or bankers - I'll name no names.- get away with much worse offences than those for which normal citizens would be imprisoned almost for life. Worse still, they don't just go unpunished, but their social acceptance rises all the same and get important jobs despite having commited crimes.

        Maybe the point is that they often steal enough money to share with powerful people and to sweeten other politicians or even magistrates. Thereby everybody is happy and therefore, silent. I can't think of any better explanation.

        In the highly improbable case that the people thought to be responsible for the rescue of Spain and some of its banks were found to be guilty, I dare to bet that they would neither be imprisoned for too long nor have their vaste properties attached to pay back at least part of the stolen money. The Spanish citizienry on the whole will have to replace it. I daresay that within a few years these same people will continue to be sickeningly rich and powerful due to their influential connections and the heaps of dough they will have hidden in other countries to avoid police and get round taxes. What makes my blood boil is that while all of us suffer financial difficulties, they'll get again important posts in government or in new banks as if nothing had happened, laughing in our face.
