[quote=JACKAROO,318300]Societies are not kept or made civil by law but by a critical mass of the population deciding to be honest. The law will only pick up a few of the few who are corrupt. No one is perfect but only a small minority will attempt to defraud others to such a large extent of 18 million Yuan. All societies need to value honesty and good character. I prefer punishment to fit the crime and I would see fraud of 18 million Yuan be punished by 18 years of goal and as much repayment of the money as possible. I do not like the death penalty because if the court made a mistake there is no way to rectify the mistake. I also think that the death penalty brutalises a society. A long time in gaol sends a message to potential and current criminals that there is a consequence for their criminal behaviour that is long term IMO.[/quote]
