Yes, I do. Prior to this they had an unknown liability if they did what
Daley did. Now they have a known, and very small, liability. Most people
will take a known vs. an unknown any day. Before they were still
wondering what might happen. Now they know, and they know it is a trivial
fine.



Chicago was hit with the maximum fine. Because of Meigs the fine has been
increased.



The change in fines for future violations is the only consolation from
this fiasco. Putting Daley in jail would be an excellent outcome though.
