Plus if you get enough tickets, the consequences are severe enough for all people; for instance, repeated speeding tickets result in your license being lost. Granted, no matter which punishment you attempt, the wealthiest and most connected citizens can just call the mayor to have the chief of police ask his subordinates to misplace the paperwork. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash <cite>Zeus posted [p:879860109] in Shouldn't ...
