    Now to make it worse, ask this, “If the corporation did 10 times this amount of damage, but to the general citizens of the country, how many people would go to jail?”

    That’s right 0 people would go to jail! And they would only be fined for no more than 10% of the profit they made while doing it. Maybe someone like a jr director of operations gets tossed in jail, but he wasnt really apart of the club.

      Nah they would have added more fees to subsidize the protections they weren’t going to put in place. Then reach out to the government for subsidies to put these protections in place. Then give bonuses, stock buy backs and when it happened again, they’d raise the fees installed previously and consider making the upgrades if the fine threatened is high enough, if not they’ll pay the fine and buy back more stock and run an ad campaign to make the company look better.
