Sharia perhaps?

Yes, obviously, but not in a legal sense.
Only problem with it is that people always forget exactly what democracy is - it is not 'everybody gets to decide' it's majority rule.
In most democracies that usually means that just under half the voters are pissed off at various times! :lol:
Regarding the a-hole, surely he wont ever be allowed to leave prison?

Koubayashi said:In Sweden it works like this:
Beat somebody half to death and you'll get a couple of months in prison BUT if you cheat the government on tax money you risk 1-2 years.

What were the facts of that beating case? Maybe there was provocation or other factors.
Tax laws are generally completely codified strict liability offences so there's no room for sentencing variations. Criminal laws on the other hand are often all over the place and open to huge variations in interpretation depending on the facts of the particular case.
And to be fair, Jacco is right - tax evasion and other white collar crime is much more damaging to society than two idiots beating each other up.
Be happy that Sweden and Norway aren't about to default instead of regurgitating the bankrupt conservative ideology that has clearly failed in recent years?
