holy frickin' fine!!!

just perusing the news today, i saw that formula 1 has fined mclaren $100,000,000 for stealing ferrari technology! yeah, that's 100 MILLION DOLLARS! holy shit. that's got to be more than some COUNTRIES make in a year (i tried to look it up but since GDPs and GNPs are per capita, and i really don't know what any of those things mean, i couldn't really be numerically witty in this case). still that is just absolutely nuts. NASCAR sends fines of like $10k or $25k and docks 25 points. mclaren gets fined $100M and lost ALL their constructor's points for the year and can't get anymore the rest of the year.

F1 is definitely not afraid to hand out the smackdown. maybe the U.S. should take note. don't be afraid to hit 'em where it hurts. they already do with taxes, now do it to people who deserve it (i really don't know what i'm talking about again, i'm kinda tired).
