Hot take: Fines should be based on your income. The bigger your income, the bigger the fine.
Fines are something used to discourage someone doing something, but it’s hardly discouraging for a millionaire who can happily take a parking ticket whenever they like, they aren’t above the law.

There should be a minimum though, otherwise I could committ a bunch of crimes if I had no income. Furthermore, you forget that a lot of extremely rich people actually use special methods to put their income really low for to avoid taxes, so this would just be harsher on people with medium income.
Yeah of course with the first one, with the second point 1. Fines should be the same for middle income as they are now and loopholes can be for everyone but it would be more discouraging
I see, in that case, sure, doesn’t hurt people much anyways
