What would your proposed punishment be for someone who directly scams millions of dollars from elderly retired people, leaving them with nothing? A fine? Great - he’s been able to play with the pensioners cash for years before being caught, now he has to give some of it back?
- qwerty456127 9y agoTake all the millions (and more) from them leaving them only the amount of money necessary for humble survival (a cheap room rental and mediocre meals) and give the money back to the victims.
- gph 9y agoWhat makes you think there would be more money than what the scammer took? You think scammers are likely to reinvest their earnings and make more than what they spend? Doubt it. This is no punishment at all.
- qwerty456127 9y agoOk, let's spend $33000 more on them every ear just to torture them by keeping them in the horrible conditions of a prison for the sweet sense of revenge... > What makes you think there would be more money than what the scammer took? They probably had something before they have committed the scam and they also might have been getting their fancy salary during the scam too...
- djrogers 9y agoFancy salary? Where did you get the idea that con men have fancy salaries? You're literally saying that fraud should have no consequences.
