checks and balances 

A system states in the US Constitution that allows one branch to cancel or rule out another branch's actions. This is only if there is a logical explanation for the cancelation of the action.
The legislative branch wanted to give President Bush balloons for his birthday, but the jurisdicial branch used checks and balances to stop them from doing so. Bush was sad and ordered a cake of his own with a picture of Osama on it.

system of checks and balances 

Refers to a totally-legal but still-somewhat-devious practice of writing personal checks for comparatively-minuscule bills --- like maybe just two or three bucks for a bag of fresh vegetables from a roadside farm-stand --- instead of paying them in cash, and then secretly hoping that the checks’ recipients will not want to bother going to the extra effort of cashing said “tiny” checks, and thus your bank-account’s “balance” will be unaffected by your purchases.
Practicing the “system of checks and balances” can have varying degrees of success, depending on various factors, such as how strapped your checks’ recipients are for cash, how accustomed they are to cashing/depositing checks, or how willing/able they are to accept checks, especially for such paltry amounts (here’s where paying with checks at an unattended “drop the money in the slot” or “place the money in the cup/jar” merchandise-stand can be a good idea, since there will be nobody there to balk at your paying with a check). Extra points if you “embellish” the checks with flowery praising messages about how wonderful the sellers’ merchandise/service is, since it may stroke the people’s ego so much that they will prefer to “frame it rather than cash it” (again, especially since the check is for such a small amount, and so its value might likely not mean all that much to the person’s overall budget) when deciding what to do with your checks.

"checks and balances" system 

A form of government-operation whereby you are guaranteed "level" or "fair overall" treatment if you are generous with your "checks" to bribe local/state/federal officials, or if you are sufficiently rich (i.e., you have a large enough "balance" in da bank) that said officials feel obliged to make special allowances for you.
We may ostensibly have a "checks and balances" system, but it never seems to help out "da little guy" very much.

Riot Balance Team 

A group of brain dead retards who is doing the exact opposite of their only job in life. They only work after overdosing large amounts of weed, and weed is the source of their "New Champions". The only thing they've accomplished so far is ruining the game called League Of Legends.

It's as simple as:
You give a brain dead strong kid a box with holes, he forces a square into a circle hole, he breaks the box and says "Yaay im so great at solving problems"
