Without the swift promise of decades in prison, what prevents the "next SBF" from committing similar crimes and causing similar damage? > Everyone has only 1 life Doesn't that make imprisonment (the ultimate time penalty) one of the fairest, most equitable punishments there is? > We should have a better system to force these individuals to pay back or make up the losses. As you say, he'll never be able to pay it back. The state can't force him to pursue high-paying work, and he goes unpunished in the meantime? |

I think imprisonment doesn't make it's one of the fairest penalty. A set of humans made that up to imprison/strip away freedom/rights of other humans. No human at birth signs these laws, it is all made up by the people with power.
I agree that creating a system to force him payback is challenging, there's no easy way to create a system like that. Maybe something as simple as 50% tax to start with for the rest of his life as long as he belongs to this society.
