Answer:
yes because it separates the economy more
The answer is definitely true. People tend to dislike the idea of lobbyists, because lobbyists often represent large, wealthy interests (like big corporations and industries) by spending huge amounts of money to persuade the government to pass legislation that is favorable to their interests. This makes it much harder for little guys (like small businesses) to get the attention of government, since non-wealthy people don't have the resources to lobby the government in the same way.
Often first time offenders would have the ability to turn around their behavior. Being exposed to the severe criminal element of prisons or jails could in fact breed a worse criminal rather than deterring them from their felonious or criminal behavior. I think the severity of the act should depend on the jail time associated with it and if they are able to enroll in diversion programs. So it some ways I would argue that it is fair.
