Oof, I couldn't disagree more. As a society we should be moving away from punitive measures and toward systemic reform. I don't think the prospect of prison time is going to deter people from playing the game they feel they have to in order to get research funding.
- MadcapJake 3y agoI couldn't agree more with you! The problem is in either the pressure to remain funded or the pressure to not admit defeat. Or a mixture of the two. We need to work on removing those roadblocks. This could be only the tip of the iceberg and harsher punishment is only going to drive people to get better at obfuscation/manipulation.
