RE: Steemit Basic Income Giveaway (Rules and Laws)

I just also digested the last bit (I got stuck on the first part of your answer). Yes, the problem of unequal application of laws is also a big problem. I was also thinking of the proportional penalties. For instance, a particular fine (lets say 100 euro), is nothing to one person and a disaster to another. On the other hand, making it a percentage of income would introduce it's own perverse incentives....

Exactly! To musk, a parking ticket isn't a deterrent. To someone else, it's the beginning of the path to homelessness. We have to solve our world's income inequality before we can even begin to figure out how much a parking ticket should be. maybe a judge should decide, but bias is a whole nother ball of wax
