Interesting article. One great thing in Finland - they have fines that scale to income.

So if you have a million bucks and get a speeding ticket, it's alot more than if you make $50k and a get a speeding ticket.

After all, isn't the purpose of fines to discourage bad behavior?

Gentle Readers,
Trickle down theory? Is that why I keep smelling pissy diapers?
