A pederast, a murderer, aremoved won't be deterred by the death penalty and there's no meaningful redress from their deaths. A banker who sees another banker get fucking fried? Bet you he starts behaving a little better for a good while.

i know we have studies on harsher penalties not changing behavior for petty or interpersonal crimes but western countries don't punish corruption much at all so i don't know if there's anything from the academy on whether that applies to spreadsheet crimes. It certainly seems like it should deter, but it seems like it should for burglary too.
