[quote] Since the Supreme Court has been considering expanding the death penalty to non-homicide crimes, maybe some new laws providing for execution for financial crimes would motivate people toward fairer dealing at the expense of some potential profit. Obviously not just any old financial crime would qualify–only the most serious financial crimes … if that were the law, and the judge ina trial in which you were serving as a juror told you you had to follow the law, even if you disagreed with it, would you hesitate to impose the death penalty in a financial fraud housing case (assuming you’re open to the death penalty)… or would you just go for it…

Interesting. I would think that relative to China (that currently does execute people for things like bribery), we would be moving backwards, wouldn’t we? I know why you’re proposing this…You just want to keep your employment busy… Just kidding….
