$500 is pocket change for rich people, but $500 to a mother raising children by herself, it’s fortune.

It’s called a day rate. And it is the only fair way to enforce laws via fines.
Any other system imposes laws on the poor while allowing the wealthy to pay for the privilege of criming.

Makes a lot of sense; what is a 1000 dollar fine to a multi-millionaire. Nothing.

Wouldn't work in the US since our millionaires get enough tax breaks to have a taxable income of 0

It’s based on a calculation of how much expendable money you have per day based on assets, income, expenses, etc.
We could have nice things like this in the US if folks weren’t so ready to dismiss every idea as impossible.

I once saw a presentation on the concept of a total wealth tax implemented in a US state (proposal, not implemented sadly). It is possible to tax the rich, just because the USA sucks at it doesn't mean it can't be done.

That's how it should be, since fines only really punish the poor.
