Reward the guilty.

More than 1.2 million Texans who have refused to pay the surcharge on their fines for drunken driving and other violations are being rewarded for thumbing their noses at the law. They will be granted amnesty. Those who have been paying the surcharges, though, will be required to continue to pay them. What is wrong with this picture?

The side note to this? I wonder how many of those who are being granted amnesty are illegal.
