Pursuing Justice against the Abuse of the Rich through Social Media: A Case Study

The purpose of this case study is to compare and contrast two recent legal cases and to derive practical implications therefrom to promote social justice in terms of income inequality. This is a case study, an analytical approach, which focuses on exploring and analyzing two of the most recent legal cases of abuse of the rich in order to identify the effects of social media on these types of cases. Despite the availability of many studies and findings about the tolerance level to income inequality, the following logic was more appropriate in applying and analyzing the two cases: "If people don’t know, see, or experience the abuse of the rich or income inequality, they are more tolerant of the abuse and income inequality."Based on the analyses of the two cases, the paper concludes that these are not the usual air rage cases; they were more of the abuse of the rich, and the punishment was decided by the use of technology.
