    readers see that Dante believes fraudulence is a worse crime than violence. I understand why he may have thought it needed to be punished more—he wanted to teach the politicians of his time to be more honest—but in reality, violence is a much worse crime. When we look at societies jails today, who has the longer sentence, the thieves and liars or murderers and rapists? It is the latter. I disagree with Dante when it comes to fraudulence being a worse crime than violence. I personally believe…
