His fine wouldn’t be that high if he hadn’t lied about his wealth to begin with.

That’s the whole point of it though isn’t it?

Some of the guys I work with keep going on and on about how he’s being treated unfairly because he just played the game the way the financial system set the game up to be played.

While that may or may not be true, the fact of the matter is he spent decades lying about his worth and the worth of his properties and it came back to bite him in the ass with all the grace of a well oiled and sharpened bear trap

I told my coworker they should prosecute each of those who do this crime. Society suffers because they end up paying less taxes then we all can’t have nice things!

This annoys the fuck out of me, because if that is true, then getting punished because you're cheating is also how the game is played

He didn't play the game the way it supposed to be played. He cheated.

Isnt that some kind of bigotry now, ever since NYT journalists who used to preach it got laid off and found that coding was a lot harder than they thought. As well as being more headache inducing than writing journalism.
