... As opposed to the current system, is that justice?
Justice is getting everything back that was taken from you. If somebody steals your coat, justice would be to return the coat, or a payment of equal value, plus additional payments to cover the loss of use over the period of theft. In essense, to make the person "whole" again, and fully return everything that was taken from them.
Why is it when the Government fines someone, the money of the fine never goes to the victims of the crime? How is that justice, and not arbituary punishment?
