AND, more significantly, are you in favor of ABOLISHING THE USE OF FINES AS PENALTIES?
Yes, corporations have sent expired medicine overseas for example. Everyone in the chain of command that allowed that to happen should be criminally responsible for every death that resulted from that. Some fines are just preemptive against potential harms. They should be eliminated and replaced with prison as a real deterrent.
100% THIS.
But as you know I am a consequentialist so if their behavior causes harm, they go to prison, but if the unethical practices lead to more overall good for society, I wouldn't punish them.
So, are you suggesting that only crimes that produce an ACTUAL REAL-LIFE VICTIM should be enforced?
No more "driving while intoxicated" infractions?
