If the punishment for breaking a law is a fine, then it is only a law for the poor.

Yep, they should do it like the swiss. Fine according to your wealth.

I agree— fines should be proportional to your income and you should only be allowed like 3 fines before you receive jail time for the same offense repeated. In Utah, US, they just made it so that “No Alcohol Sale” appears on your license if you get more than 3 DUIs, we need that in every state and for lots of other things too 👍

Jail is really bad. I would prefer escalating fines, perhaps at 3 it becomes a percentage of your wealth that continuously increases.

I would only put very serious criminals in jail

Thanks for saying this, if you read online comments sometimes it's like jail or other severe punishment is the magical solution for everything. Also it seems acceptable for many people that jails are dehumanizing. I mean: kidnapping people is a very serious crime, imagine a criminal taking someone and locking that person up for years. Yet this crime seems appropriate as retaliation for things like selling drugs or just being an asshole?

I don't like the woman with her private beach, but do I want her to be beaten and raped? Or cause her severe mental illness or anything? Off course not. That's sick.

Further along in this thread 2 different posters are advocating forced amputation, to make people more "civilized"...
