Prison sentence for tax evaders fitting

Anyone who is caught evading more than a million euros in taxes in Germany must reckon with an unconditional prison sentence, the Federal High Court rules on Tuesday. The decision is a just one, the left-liberal daily Süddeutsche Zeitung applauds: "Evading one million in taxes = prison. That may sound brutal but it's quite normal. It only sounds brutal because until now harsh penal justice has mainly been reserved for the little man on the street: fare dodgers, petty fraudsters and drug addicts. It may be that the jubilation over the ruling on criminal sentences for tax offences is motivated by envy: most people lack both the means and the possibilities to evade a million euros or more in taxes. But the penalties for tax evaders are being made more severe not because of the social envy of the low earners, but to correct an existing imbalance."
