      I kinda like the idea of exponential fines. First time, exponent is 1, probably survivable, maybe second time with an exponent of 2, but if you don’t fix your shit it quickly become untenable.

      Would be nice to do something similar on property taxes for single family home. Home 1 has an exponent of 1, home 2 has exponent of 2 and so on. Creates a natural block to people owning a stupid number of homes by just making it too damn expensive.

        @SteevyT with the base number being calculated off of entity value (net worth) or operating expenses, whichever is higher, so that first fine lands hard
