Wire fraud? Well have we got a deal for you sir! For only $2000 a day you can live in the 'lap of luxury', and help cross subsidise that super-max we would have put you in; all at the same time.

If nothing else, it introduces a degree of transparency to sentencing.
As well as extending any actual disparities between rich and poor to the furthest possible point, short of people being able to 'opt-out' of a jail sentance for a one-off payment of £5000 or whatever.
