The American political system is made up of the American people. If you want to fix things, fix the primary system and the gerrymandering so that politicians don't have to pander to the extremes of both parties.
Really? Exactly how old are you then? BTW, if your answer isn't implausibly old, you don't know what you are talking about or are just naive about history.
Wow, you really don't have any clue as to what actually happened, do you? Guess you will keep drinking the ignorance flavored koolaid you have been drinking.
No, he is being facetious in commenting about the level of restitution and fines which you are then taking as a literal comment. And, no, actually, they don't agree with you which is why restitution is not limited to the value of the item damaged.
Changing horses in midstream, but whatever.
I don't care one way or the other. He brought it on himself. He made his bed, so let him sleep in it. If he didn't want to get in this kind of trouble he wouldn't have engaged in the illegal acts from which his situation has resulted.
Would you be surprised if he were ordered to pay the cost of replacing the window which had an original cost of $200.00 with an impact resistant window that costs $1,000.00 and the cost of installing the new windows?
It wasn't a single consultant, it was a consulting group, and what exactly did the consulting group do? That cost may include 100 engineers and programmers plus hardware and software plus data center costs plus plus lost revenue. You are again engaging in a straw man by substituting your opinion of what was required for remediation for what the judge determined was required as remediation and justifiably included in restitution.
He admitted to his intent. You are arguing that someone found with lock picks and admitted he was intending to use them to commit burglary should not be charged with possession of burglary tools.
Conspiracy: He planned and worked with his fellow citizens to commit an illegal act.
Criminal: You freely admit that he broke the law and give no valid reason why it is unjust. Then, you state a patently false statement akin to "driving a car is not the action of a criminal." Premeditated: You freely admit that he made plans and committed acts to ready his participation in the crime.
Harm a corporation: owned, operated, and employing Americans. That you don't like the corporation and/or the politics of it's leaders doesn't mean that it "exists only to harm Americans"
You mean like the how some conservatives are engaging in DDoS attacks on HealthCare.gov because they see as harmful to America?
Why would I go to jail? You have made the parameter such that if I pay for replacing the window, all is right. Conversely, you are also suggesting that the subject of the submission should not have gotten probation but should be in prison.
You do understand that crashing the economy hurts the very people you say intentionally crashed the economy, right? Or, do you think they live outside the economy?
You are using a straw man argument. He is being fined for the act he committed as provided by law. He is not being fined for 1000 windows, just the 1 he broke. You just don't like the amount of the fine. If he had broken a $300.00 window in California, he could be fined $10,000.00. You are upset over the amount of the fine and are arguing he is being fined for more than his single act.
If one is committing illegal acts and gets caught, one could very well end up with years of wage garnishment. See, there are penalties for doing things for illegal purposes.
The fines are not used for restitution nor are they intended to be used for restitution. Fines are part of the punishment. They are in addition to any ordered restitution.
All you people comparing this to breaking a window and saying how the "fine should be the replacement cost of the window" don't know the first damn thing about the law. If one throw a brick through a window, one might have to pay restitution of the replacement cost of the window, but onewill also face possible jail time and a fine.
Let's say someone throws a brick through a $300.00 window:
In California, one faces up to one year in jail and/or $1000 in fines.
In Washington, one faces up to 5 years in prison and $10,000 in fines.
In Mississippi, one faces up to 1 year in jail and $1,000 in fines.
That is on top of any restitution the court orders. And, if you don't believe me, look it up your damn self.
So, a drunk driver who is arrested but didn't cause a wreck or do any damage should not be fined anything, right? And, that is "the way it works. In any legal system, anywhere", right? Wrong? Maybe you should rethink what fines are. Fines do not provide restitution for the crime. They are a punishment. A fine is in addition to restitution.
Fuck your biblical standard. The immoral bible is a stupid thing to site for something like this when it also says rape victims should be killed if they don't scream.
And, you know what you are leaving out? Fear, pain and suffering, lost income, enhanced security, and all the other things that would go with the aftermath of a crime.
So, if someone throws a brick through your window, you believe they should be find the cost of the window, which is about $200.00 in most of the United States. At that rate, I could throw bricks through your window every week for the foreseeable future.
I recently heard an explanation of entanglement by a physicist using the decay of a spin 0 particle into two particles (your two evelopes) with spin 1 (your cards). The result of that decay would be a particle with right spin 1 (A) and a particle with left spin 1 (B). He stated that detecting the spin of one particle determined the spin of the other.
This is not a satisfactory explanation. We know that spin is conserved, so we know that each particle will have one of those values. If one particle has spin A, then by conservation of spin, the spin of the second particle MUST have spin B.
Your '2 envelopes, one contains an "AB" and the other contains a second "AB"' is equally unsatisfactory because it means that each resulting particle has both spin left and spin right solely because we can't calculate which particle has which spin at decay time.
How about giving the boss the problem and a solution.
Because it is the boss' job to come up with a solution to this kind of problem.
If you worked for me as a manager of people, YOU should worry about YOUR job because as a manager (boss) it is your job to solve that kind of problem. By saying it is your employee's job to come up with a solution to a management problem, you are saying you are lazy and expendable. I should fire YOU and promote HIM.
The goal is more resources. The author is looking for methods of telling the boss they need more help.
And, your suggestion is to tell them how they can outsource most of his job thus making him redundant.
Right and wrong. IT departments don't make money directly. They do, however, help other departments make more money. That is what one must always present to the executive suite.
IT helps marketing, sales, etc. do their jobs better and faster and adds much more value than cost.
That is the message IT managers and directors need to continuously present to executives and other departments.
BTW, a way to do this is to "charge" for IT services the same way facilities "charge" for cubicle space.
You are making the very large and probably false assumption that the submitter has the authority to make those decisions. Also, there may be an unintended side effect of pushing for such changes: the submitter could end up slitting his own throat by indicating that he is not important and all his job duties can be outsourced.
Provide a business case showing that if you get hurt or killed, there is will be a serious impact to the business and continuity. Also show how you can only fix one major issue at a time so any major issue will be a serious impact to the business. Remember to show you are close to irreplaceable and effectively a single point of failure which could endanger the company's revenue and good will with customers and vendors.
Also, as most executives see IT as a cost center, include information on how what you support improves efficiency and sales, especially via internet connectivity and email, and thus improves profits.
It is easier and faster to do transactions if one's wallet is stored with an exchange. That is why people do it. Also, they falsely conflate these exchanges with banks and assume they have the same level of security.

How about this one: "I was only inside her for a minute" for statutory and other forms of rape.

Don't forget about the felony murder rule. That one is often a shock to people involved in a crime.

for doing nothing more than engaging in a conspiracy and criminal attack in a premeditated attempt to harm a corporation.
FTFY
One minute of using an automated tool to attack and attempt to harm a company is apparently a worse offense than accidentally crashing the economy.
Sort of fixed your false comparison for you.

Can you provide a better explanation?

Well, not really.

The submitter doesn't have a co-worker, so your objection is irrelevant.
