I wanted to include a line about that but finally decided against it. I like neither option. Would it really be any better if way paid a million for every fatality? Yea, we killed your children...but hey, you are a dollar millionaire now, buy some nice stuff to cheer you up! Maybe the money would be spent better trying to avoid such incidents in the first place instead of attaching a price tag to accidentally killed people. In the end I am really unsure what the best option would be.
- Crito 12y agoFamily members are a part of the support network that people have. This includes emotional support, as well as more tangible support such as financial or residential, as well as informational support (family members teaching each other about society and life) and social support (for instance family members refering each other to friends or professionals (lawyers, doctors, carpenters, etc)). When somebodies family member is killed, their support network is reduced. Financial compensation can help to offset the damage done to their support network. It's not just about making people feel better.
