The 'socially excluded' are as much a product of the system as are the golden circle of gombeen men who reap the reward of corruption. Their only form of public accountability is to appear before these endless tribunals where their lawyer friends further enrich themselves at public expense. Welfare for the rich and criminalization for the poor.
