T-Rex: Let's say I, oh, I don't know, COMMITED A CRIME BECAUSE I'M A MASTER CRIMINAL??
T-Rex: And let's say I, oh, I don't know, SLIPPED UP AND GOT CAUGHT??
T-Rex: And let's further go on to say that, oh, I don't know, the crime I pulled off was really minor like parking in a spot without paying a machine enough to park there for that long??
Dromiceiomimus: Weeeeaaaaaaaaaak
T-Rex: ANYWAY the moral of the story, DROMICEIOMIMUS, is it turns out everyone who gets caught has to pay the same fine!
Utahraptor: So! Pay up, Moriarty!
T-Rex: But it's unfair!
T-Rex: I can afford this fine just fine, but for someone who's struggling, it could mean they don't eat that week! And if I were super loaded, fines would mean almost nothing to me and I could park like a super jerk 24/7! Fines should be scaled to income.
Utahraptor: 0.01% of your income last month?
T-Rex: Sure!
Off panel: But suppose your income is mainly in non-liquid assets not easily accessed such as bonds or multi-year GICs?
T-Rex: Depending on repayment sch- wait oh my GOD WHAT HAPPENED ARE WE SERIOUSLY HAVING A CONVERSATION ABOUT GICS??
T-Rex: WHEN
T-Rex: DID
T-Rex: WE
T-Rex: GET OLD
