laughs in less than two weeks of pentagon funding
For what it’s worth I agree with you, but the money we spend on many agencies is wild
Haha yes, the Pentagon has probably “lost” more money than the totality of all fines.
It’s just an idea I had, rather than directly spending out of a budget it would be a way to be self sustaining. If there is no wrongdoing then by its nature the funding would dry up and be self-cancelling. On the other hand it could generate further revenue if allowed to continue investigating.
The problem is that the auditors will ALWAYS find wrongdoing, even if it doesn’t exist. If their funding (and therefore their jobs) depend on fines on offending organizations, then everyone is getting found to be fraudulent
That’s definitely a real problem that would need to be considered. I’m sure it has been in great length. My gut feeling says it’s workable though and the problem being more political than technical.
I’m in full agreement. Crypto was touted as this “untraceable currency” and, surprise, it became used for nefarious means. We need more regulation on this stuff, not less, because as much as the “everyday joe” who got into crypto “because his nephew taught him about it” doesn’t want the government spying on him, really it’s massive fund transfers and money laundering for bad actors that it seems to benefit the most.
Especially once you’ve been found or pleaded guilty. If a person commits a crime of this magnitude and they go to jail, they would have probation upon release. Maybe there should be some kind of corporate probation policy? Not something up for negotiation.
