Taxes owed can be paid with fines.... That goes away

I'm not so sure about that. Capone was sent to Alcatraz for 4 1/2 years for tax evasion. I would guess that he had enough funds (from the money he made bootlegging and other "activities") to pay what he owed to avoid prison. But they still sent him to "The Rock".

Are you seriously comparing the dispensation of justice in this country from 1931 to 2023?
