the idea of an old white businessman surrounded by gang members is amusing.
but seriously, if all things are equal, why can't they go to real prison like poor people?
does it have to do with something like the people that run prisons are class collaborators?

Why should the rich have to mix with the poor in prison?

Not all "white" collar prisoners are white! That is what a lot of steriotypers would like you to think. It would have more to do with, pressure! Like in Paris Hilton...and Nicole... The more media, the less time seems to be the rule these days. Simply, if attention is drawn, people are found out to be what they are and in most cases prefer to leave the skeletons for Holloween.
So, it is best to brush it under the corner of the media and divert the pops to another story....

Same reason Paris Hilton never did any 'hard' time. The money used to keep the lying thieves in power in America would be lost if we put all rich criminals in jail with the normal 'cons'.

Because what they did is paramount to ripping off grandma, not killing her.
Your point about drug dealers is a good one. However, most drug dealers that are not involved in any other crime should not be in prison because drugs is a personal choice and should be legal.
(am I going to get killed for saying that or what?)

Exactly because they are old and white. Have you ever hung around a courthouse-the poor Hispanic or black that didn't make bail are paraded in in cuffs and a nice orange suit-the young or old rich guy comes in in a new suit and fresh hair cut--now tell me the judge can make a fair decision.

Medium and Maximum security prisons are for criminals that injure or kill people. They aren't needed for thieves.
