The pity is that! the fine and time# in prison is not enough to give the ones implicated the proper fear. If we had/our say we would say, let the fine be enough to break the guilty one, or ones up financially and then a long term in prison and then any oiiS who wbuld consider wfiiskey making from a money making view point would see that he would be taking too much risk. We believe this measure would go a long step in the right direction.
