The ultra wealthy of today have wealth enough
to treat the law courts as their personal casinos,
where the lawyers there act as their ushers
the losses can be written off comfortably:
whatever the law that the wealthy are testing,
it was always somebody else's money before
they got their hands on it, where the somebody else
never knew the money should have been theirs,
to own until other people lost it, at random.
The poor, who can't afford lawyers and don't
do visits to casinos, seek cheaper ways to experience
risk - as - life, in which they can withstand the losses.
There, money might well be involved,
but the currency of personal experience of each other,
which can vary more than anyone may know,
is valued more and is often harder to put into words
that the poor present to each other as a stable currency.
