I guess if that makes you and them feel better. Feelings are all the rage these days.

It's not based in feelings, it's based on research going back to BF Skinner. If you're going to end at 50, you can start at 0 and work towards it, reinforcing the positive behaviors, or start at 100 take it away, punishing the negative. Despite the substantive similarities, research has shown that the reinforcement is consistently and significantly more effective.

Sometimes you can't avoid making it into a punishment (like your speeding example), but whenever possible, it's just a more effective approach.

Wait. Is it that you don't want them to pay a penalty at all or you don't want to call a penalty a penalty.

I just paid a penalty to an agency and it didn't hurt my feelings. I fricked up a form. Well, not me but it stops with me.

We should get rid of all penalties according to Mr. Skinner then?

An intern somewhere needs a coat.

I have worked LEGALLY for 10 years overseas. It is costly, inconvenient, and takes slot of planning to do so. The when the locals are trained, they march us out of the country quickly.

Time for Americans to treat illegals and legal immigrants the same way as their citizens are treated.

ALL of my Naturalized USA citizen friends feel the same way. They came here and did it LEGALLY with stress and financial duress, and they feel slighted by the leniency given to illegal immigrants.
