In social studies term, untouchability refers to how much a member of a certain social group could get away from doing things that might not be able to be done by other social group.
In most countries that exist in the world today, a person's untouchability tend to be dependent on their wealth and status. They tend to managed to get away from crimes that usually put poor people in jail.
We can put a blame for this situation on how we structure our society. We developed a system that enable the rich and powerful to control our government through the use of donations/contributions. As a result, our government are afraid to go after them in fear that they might be losing their support. To fix this, people have no choice but to pressure the government to held these people accountable to the law that regulate all citizens in untied Stages.
