The whole document that is the Magna Carta is very interesting if you understand what you are reading but my most favorite and telling clause is this one; 20. For a trivial offence, a free man shall be fined only in proportion to the degree of his offence, and for a serious offence correspondingly, but not so HEAVILY as to DEPRIVE him of his LIVELIHOOD. In the same way, a merchant shall be SPARED his merchandise, and a ( VILLEIN ) the IMPLEMENTS of his HUSBANDRY, if they fall upon the mercy of a royal court. NONE of these FINES shall be IMPOSED except by the assessment on OATH of REPUTABLE men of the NEGHBOURHOOD. Does anybody need this translated or is it blatantly obvious why the Government/Banks/Pedophiles are not delt with accordingly?
