The principle “an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth” seems to be fair in his laws. But on the other hand, any criminal could get around the punishment if he had enough money. That is, he remained unpunished, which I do not like. The laws of Hammurabi themselves were created in the 18th century BC and were well suited for that ancient Babylonian society. Even in the laws of Hammurabi, there is excessive cruelty in punishments.
One of the components of a person's success in our time is receiving modern high-quality education, mastering the knowledge, skills and abilities necessary for life in society. A person today needs to study almost all his life, mastering everything new and new, acquiring the necessary professional qualities.
