    So how exactly is a guy supposed to pay 4.3 BILLION dollars? The gov knows that’s not a real number, right? And he’s not going to pay? At all?

    Like, he can literally pay 1000 lookalikes a cool million to fake their death and it’ll still be cheaper than the fine.

    Anyways I’m sure this guy will totally not bail after fucking over society enough for 4.3B dollars. But we better send more cops to shoot a kid who has $20 worth of weed in his pockets.
