Reply to comment by AccomplishedMeow in Cocaine dealer says $74K fine for selling drugs to undercover cop is unconstitutional by 2028W3
They treat drug dealing stuff differently than medical debt or a default car loan or mortgage.

He’s being punished for not being able to pay his court fines.
That would be like you being imprisoned for not being able to pay back your credit card bills.

No, court fines are imposed when you do something illegal. Not the same as not paying cc bills. Dude dealt drugs, got caught and got nailed. Would it be bad if they sicced the IRS on him to audit him and nail him for tax evasion for not paying taxes on his drug earnings? Like how they nailed Capone?
I'd say that's how you handle drug dealers. Put IRS auditors on them and see what's what.

So if he paid his fines then he would not have to go to prison? Yet guys who have a bit of weed on them don't have a choice and go straight to jail or prison? Wtf....
