Where "apple" means "some item of value":
If you are rich and have an apple, and the police see you have an apple; you have an apple.
If you are poor and have an apple, and the police see you have an apple, they will stop you and interrogate you as to where you got the apple.

Maybe we need to refine our definitions becasue to me being "Poor" is to lack anything of value.
