### Comment:
The point is that once you reach a certain threshold you're not playing the same game as the rest of us. You pay less taxes, can threaten/grease anyone, you don't go to jail, you influence elections and even the global market. An altered-carbon scenario is science-fiction for now but inevitable. 
  
 Now that may be a grey-zone and it's reach is up for debate, but it's undoubtedly there and a force working against it is a good thing for all of us.

Your assuming a very many things. Like practically everything. Your assuming science fiction is an inevitable science fact — and it’s not. There is a very large difference between what’s possible and what will actually happen. And people in general are crap at predicting.
