wow. just plain wow. bail is not a matter of class warfare, and believe it or not, the odds that someone who could afford to pay the level of CASH bail they are assessed in a court are very slim. the people that can are in the richest 1% of the nation, and frankly, that means 99% of the nation could not do what you suggest. however, through the means of the credit and lending system which is essential to the running of every day life, any individual could gain bond as long as the bail bonds company believes they will be faithful and show up to court. trust me, I've had to use it for multiple friends, and it works. if anything, the average person should be pretty damned happy that some stranger would stand surety that they would make it to trial so that they're not simply remanded because they couldn't afford the entire fee up front.
