"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.

Gustavio's balanced self

Gustavio's balanced self is really helpful. I do appreciate that. I never tell him enough. I never do many things enough. But this is about Gustavio. His balanced self.
Thank you, Gustavio's balanced self, for being there. Better late than never. Better digital than nothing at all.

Gustavio's balanced self, I still have so much work to do. Scary when I think of it. Coffee?

You have a zero balance

A statement that always brings a really nice sens of relief to see/hear when checking/inquiring about your account-status.
"You have a zero balance" is comparably welcome to seeing that delightful little word "approved" pop up on the LCD display of a store's card-scanner, informing you that your debit/Food Stamps card didn't have a problem processing your purchases that time.
