What’s the point of a fine if it doesn’t hurt?

Well, let’s see.

The man’s income is $7.2 Million and the fine is based on this. So $60,000 is about .83% of his income.

If a man makes $100,000 a year, based on the above formula, he would be fined $833 for speeding.

If a man makes $50,000, he would be fined $416 for speeding.

That’s gotta hurt.

Try applying that in the USA and see how soon you get voted out out of office.

Now here’s a question, what if you don’t have any income at all and are on the dole? How are they going to fine you?

Are they going to take a huge portion of the dole out?
