While we're talking ideal punishments for a white collar criminal, I say give him 30 lashes along with those big fines and set him loose immediately (but watch him in case he didn't learn his lesson). Repeal that whole cruel and unusual thing while you're at it... to paraphrase Heinlein, the whole point of punishment is cruelty, and to add my own opinion, if it's unusual the criminal will just remember it better.

In case you want to call me insensitive again (which I am) or stupid (which I don't think I am), yes, Max, I really do think this would be a good idea, because I don't commit crimes so I wouldn't have to worry about being whipped myself.
