Exactly. That is the problem.
The wealthy don’t stop the behavior; they just move the liability. Someone else speeds, someone else gets fined, and the danger stays the same. That’s not a loophole, it’s how financial deterrence works when money can absorb risk.
So no, I’m not defending that outcome. I’m exposing it.
A system built on fines doesn’t stop harm; it prices it. And once something has a price, people with money will pay to bypass the barrier, whether it’s them behind the wheel or someone they hired.
You think my premise is broken? I’m saying the system already is.
Om not saying your premise is broken, I'm saying it's wrong?
No idea what you're even arguing???
I'm not arguing, I agree with you and took it further.
