What is the world view (aka context) of this little old lady?

Watch the news and see CEO's with golden handshakes after the company is nailed for something. Wall street failures. Companies getting government bailouts. The current US president. It is all about getting away with what you can.

The news - being the news - doesn't show process as per normal. People doing the right thing most of the time.

In this context, fake stamps for the "little person" doesn't even rate a mention. Who the hell is going to raise a moral panic about an old lady with fake stamps...

And so the "little people" will keep buying fake whatevers as long as it stretches their dollar further.
