Oh yea, I hear you.

What your point does though is open up the discussion about whether enforcement makes financial sense in isolation. And once you open that door, the whole becomes uncomfortable for a lot of people who are stuck in a simple black-and-white justice mentality, where “do what you’re supposed, pay what they charge, or be punished” is all there is to making the world work well. You know, “law and order” types.

You’re trying to talk about incentives. For many though that’s a very dangerous slippery slope. So I’m trying to get a head of that and wonder if the end of that slippery slop is actually a demonstrably good thing.
