True, but to put a still finer point on it, still fantastically more harmful to that poorest man than the king.

Again I agree, this is why some countries have scaling fines. If a rich person gets a speeding ticket they still don't execute them.

The real injustice is that the poor man does not have a hat. Whereas the king most likely has a whole room dedicated to them.
