salaam,
Business and bankers deal,
To hold checks of matter not to be fined for lack of funds,
For that fine for the non business kind of public life in matters of a check of a pension account that banks agree with the holder of the waged matter to cash it only at both delights that it not be due at presentational matter.
So business and public checking accounts not equal nor the same,,,for one holds fines while the other takes no fines,
and soem even get jail time for lack of funds written from an account that only a business can POST DATE a well guarded check and even at the date of its matter does not have to cash a check while holding an account for whom the bankers so choose with no fine in the mind,
banks and law discriminate against the public not made lawful to write a check of post dated matter and takes no bad credit of its written matters into its account nor any fines that is for the poor funded matter of public and not business matters?
Bank proclaimed a check is not warranted in funds of its matter if it came from a business matter so they stop checks of their own desire then some they process so one can visit jails while some above questioning in the same matter as white collar hardly does any time from crime matters,
for if it be a crime for one life what in the matter of a check matter made it not a crime in anothers account?
Truth became stranger than FICTION in democracy rulings,
Wisdom need not apply,,its the above and under law matters,
while the work effort be the same in matters
