Deterence of Future Acts

Deterence of Future Acts

One of our goals is to prevent a re-occurrence of the Trump/Maga Era (TME).

There are two general methods:

  • The carrot: Create a reward structure for those who avoid repeating the act in the future.
  • The stick: Creation of a credible fear that there will be serious consequences should the act be repeated in the future.

Deterence Depends on Justice Being Swift and Sure

People tend to believe that through luck or skill that they will not be cought, much less punished, for their bad deeds.

Deterence works only when the chances of being caught and punished are high and that punishment will be harsh, certain, and sure.

Our Federa and state legal systems tend to meet these criteria only when the defendant is not-wealthy enough to afford the significant costs of ramified petitions, long periods of discovery, intricate trials, and nearly infinite appeals.

Our American Tribunal will have to swim against the currents of our modern, slow, complicated legal practices in order to establish a solid reputation for speedy, but sure, justice to all who have done wrong.
