On one side of the divide are the "Too Big To Fail Banks" who receive slaps on the wrist for the exploitation of the American Dream. They sent thousands upon thousands of Americans into bankruptcy. Americans were removed from their homes, no matter the race or ethnicity. Yet, the banks received bailouts as well as AIG which was provided numerous bailouts to keep up with their losses and inability to pay for the insurance coverage their Big Bank Clients paid for.
At the other end of the spectrum is Mr. Eric Garner who struggles to make a living and sells "Lucys" on the side. He buys the cigarettes and pays all the taxes when they are purchased. So, the cigarettes in the package number 20. There are twenty individual cigarettes to sell. If he charges $1.00 for each one he is collecting $20.00.
1. New York ($12.50): $14.50 = +16% (click here)
If Mr. Garner purchased Marlboro cigarettes he's make a profit of $5.50 according to New York State pricing.
The CEOs of the Too Big To Fail Banks never got their suits wrinkled by police. But, when CEO Garner Enterprises (who is paying for his son's college education - the first Garner to attend college) is approached by police he can't breath and dies.
Proportionality is out of sinc and is more and more appearing to be based in Plutocratic enforcement of laws. Little guys like Garner Enterprises die to prevent competition with local shops who don't sell Lucys even if a person only smokes a cigarette or two per day; but, the Too Big To Fail Banks are allowed to continue business as usual while having very affordable fines assessed, even though they are the largest fines ever charged by the US Justice Department.
Proportionality is lost when Plutocracy patrols the economy.
Proportionality = "The rich get richer while the poor get poorer."
