When did you realize that all laws are made to benefit the rich and/or oppress the rest of us, and a politician's job is to write the laws and sell them to the voters? (lemmy.world)

They are enforced against poors. While rich rapists walk free.

    That has certainly been the case in some places, though by no means all of them. Enforcement is also a separate issue to the law itself.

    But to provide some maybe better examples, do laws that enshrine workers' rights to form a union only serve to benefit the rich? Laws that limit donations to political parties? I really don't think you can make that argument for all laws.
