    Thank you kindly, stranger! It wouldn’t surprise me though if we shared one view or another, I’m aware that corporations and rich people either find a way out of paying fines or that those fines are a set amount instead of a percentage of their wealth, which will always be devastating to poor folks and barely a scratch to the financially unchallenged.

      Well, we’d be agreeing on that as well then. But don’t thank me for just barely adhering to baseline discourse ettiquette, I’d say that sets the wrong expectation :P
