That would depend

if my house's total gdp was 14 trillion dollars

actually the correct analogy would be someone simply turning the doorhandle and wandering in

if you dont lock your house, just try claiming on insurance for anything stolen

Well sort of,

that isn't breaking and entering, no. It is however trespassing and still illegal.

Oh ok.

So it is more of a crime to steal £100 from someone who only has £300 in their bank account than it is to steal £1 million from someone who has tens of millions in their bank account? Fucking bullshit.

No, but

it is more of a crime to steal $100 from someone who only has $300 in their bank account than to steal $800,000 from someone who has $14,000,000,000,000 in their bank account.

Seriously?

yes

100 of £300 = 33.33%
800,000 of $14,000,000,000,000 = 0.0000057142857142857145%

So it is simply based on a percentage?

I am sorry, but you must have kept your moral compass far too near your collection of delusion magnets.

I think you must have kept your moral compass,

far too near to your bad-common-sense-magnets! Ha! two can play at this analogy.

It's exactly as if Gary McKinnon had very long arms

and reached across the atlantic and pulled a general's pants down.

Funny kind of system.

So how does stealing $1 from somebody with $3 shape up against stealing $1 from somebody with $17,500,000?
