you know what would be a good 28th Amendment blanket prohibition on generating revenue via law enforcement fines can still be levied but the money is taken out of circulation
or rather, as much as I have beef with most of what I see presently from urban police departments, I don't think they are necessarily corrupt and that in principle a charity operated by and for police might be a legitimate good. e.g. providing for the widows of fallen officers.

okay. but on the other hand, if fines destroy money, consider the incentive structure when corporate America has a motivation to self-police to keep the fuckin' currency from going deflationary

that gives them a powerful mechanism to manipulate the money supply via second order consequences and they can price their debt instruments accordingly which is horrible

aw, dang
