Ok ok ok hear me out. What if we had a corpus of laws written down of Things You're Not Allowed To Do, and if you do one of those Things you have to do some kind of, oh, idk... punishment. Like, and I'm just spitballing here, for instance the first time could be you have to pay some money back to society. And if you keep doing the Thing anyway, we put you in a little room away from other people for a bit. And then β€” hear me out now because this is the real secret sauce β€” what if those Things applied to All People, not just The Poors.
@Lana As a Poor, I am offended that you think I should matter less than my social betters to the Law. I demand social hierarchy, with me on the bottom!

@Lana It'll never catch on

Shame really, it's a good idea

@staringatclouds
It is an idea well ahead of its time.
