I don't agree with this. It's about incentives. If you make it too painful to conduct this type of crime, perpetrators will give up.

  The prospective of spending 30 years in jail is a disincentive.

    Indeed, but it's not the only one.

    This is only a disincentive to people who normally don't commit crimes. If you're part of a crime ring, this ins't something you are concerned with on a daily basis.

      Organized criminals are aware of what brings the heat, what does not, and what crimes add up to what time. Their lawyers help them with that. For the same reason they don't go after local business in Russia, because of the 'cost'.
