One of the most depressing things about modern technology is that it has made it possible for the tech savvy scum of the earth to steal fortunes. Which means in the not too distant future many of the world's richest people, including many who are influential, will basically be thieves, having gained their fortunes through hacking, stolen i.d.s or another nefarious means. This week alone a hacking ring has stolen up to $1 billion from banks around the world. I doubt if law enforcement will recover much of that money or that the thieves will be caught and punished. Not at all. They will be the smug, arrogant, seemingly innocent people staying at the best hotels, dining in the best restaurants, driving the most expensive cars, and playing a role in society. And you won't be able to tell these lowlifes from people who made their fortunes honestly.
