Civil Forfeiture means private property can be a liability unless one has a lot of extra liquidity to fund a legal defense.

Civil asset forfeiture only matters for personal property. Private property, such as investments, stakes in ventures, and so on, is not affected by civil asset forfeiture. I've never seen anyone have their business seized without trial, but people have had their houses destroyed without trial.

The rich have so many layers between them and their property, that "Civil Forfeiture" is not an issue, sometimes not even when convicted.
