    That sounds like a great slogan, but you really don't want a justice system that's has an additional mandate to collect revenue. It's basically civil forfeiture all over again

      Isn't that...taxation? Seems alright to me!

        fines ≠ taxes
        • hx8 1y ago
          The justice department does have a mandate to punish those that do not pay their taxes....

  We shall call it the Turtle Party, inspired by the Turtle Religion. Turtles all the way down.

  > companies that behave badly are forced to pay Isn't this just regulation?

    It’s a form of regulation. We could also put the sysadmin and the CIO to death every time there is a data breach but we, as a society, have decided that is too extreme. We could also choose to simply wag our fingers and hope the shame they feel will prevent a repeat. Fines seem to strike a balance.
