Whether it's $50,000 or $100,000 or something else, a higher fine definitely carries more weight. It says to the public, “This is important.” If there's a mistake here, you know, people say, “Wait a minute. Fifty thousand bucks is a lot of money, so it must be important.” I certainly think a higher fine.... You could scale it in some way, depending on the extent of the offence—for example, if there is money involved.
Again, I'm not certain how you might do that, but I would certainly push it to an upper limit, as much as you're allowed to in law.
