AFAIK no one has triggered the biggest fines (yet?). Can’t wait for it to happen.

So, because I can’t solve one problem, I shouldn’t ever try to solve a different one? I like Gandalf as much as the next guy, but their world is very simple - evil is evil, good is good and there’s no place for shades of gray.

In the US where they decided to make the punitive system for-profit?

That’s a very American context where prisons are for-profit companies (wtf USA?), that’s why everything is so expensive. In a normal country death sentence wouldn’t cost nearly as much.

Sure, you can call it that and yeah, it might make some people think more before being in favour of it just because it doesn’t sound as bad.

But I disagree with the first part, plenty deserve to be killed, always had and always will.

In theory death penalty is exactly that - people justly decide that someone harms society too much and they don’t want that person in society.

(again, note that I don’t think it should be implemented in real world because of how easily corruptible people are)

I mean, it’s hard. I’m not really against death penalty on its own, I think there are crimes which deserve exactly that. My issue with death penalty is how easy it is to misuse. So in a theoretical world where some perfect entity with no ability to make mistakes decides who gets it, I’m 100% in favour. In the real world, not so much.

As much as I dislike crypto, this is not a crypto fail story, even though the article paints it like that a few times (or at least the tone implies).

No one should have their finger servered because of other people’s greediness.

These are the occasions I wish death penalty was a thing, especially for those cases where the idiots have been caught in the act - there are better things to do with my tax money than making sure they have a place to live in and some nice good meals to go with it.
