Could he be sentenced to not give out his opinions publicly please?

[-] Baahb@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago

If he has money left, they didn't fine him enough

That’s a big sum. How rich is he?

[-] danielfgom@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Mega rich. Billions. A real low life and wheeler dealer. A massive blotch on F1

I dislike Bernie intensely, but let's not kid ourselves that the current F1 owners are motivated by anything except how much money they can screw out of the sport.

Oh definitely but they are also there to win and have the pride that comes with it

Again a situation in which the rich simply cannot lose. Fraud for 400 million, worst case they “catch” you and you have to settle for double, but he could have used that 400 million for years to expand his fortune, now that settlement is still cheap for him. Besides, if they never caught him, he would have had even more.

The only real punishment for these people is taking away their time, i.e jail time.

Taking their time in jail, pay the taxes they owe, plus pay the potential interest they gained from the fraud, plus a fine at least double the amount of the fraud would be a good start I think. Make it painful and not just a cost of doing business.
