Seriously… If you commit fraud and lie to the government, you go to jail. A corporation does it and the fine is a fraction of a percent of their profits.
If this capitalist dictatorship shit — where sociopaths, psychopaths, and pedophiles collude with the government to defraud and exploit the people — is what Liberals consider “democracy”, Liberalism is a full blown cuck ideology that deserves to die as much as conservatism.
The vast majority of people I know never commit anything that lands them in jail. However nearly all consider paying the speeding ticket fine once in a while just a cost of life they thinking nothing of.
It is almost impossible to state this because it’s proving a negative. A company says they changed, sometimes they have, sometimes they only haven’t been caught anymore - there is no real way to know.
I know I’ve had to go through a bunch of trainings in my company of how not to do something that would get us fined, but I don’t know if it actually has worked or if it’s just a checklist item that keeps the fines down somehow
With all due respect, that is the dumbest shit I’ve heard in a while. Congrats!
If you don’t pay attention to the world and don’t know shit about modern history you can simply say you don’t know, instead of asserting some fantasy where oligarch criminals could be rehabilitated by a negligible inconvenience because the proles have to do compliance training.

Are you comparing fraud to speeding, or agreeing that fines are not punitive enough to matter to corporations?
Neither. I’m stating that as a society, we treat them similar. Whether that’s right or wrong is not a judgment I am making.
I mean, if they got fined something like 100 days’ revenues¹ they’d change their tune right quick. European law allows for that kind of fine.
¹ One day’s revenues being calculated as the total revenues in their last fiscal year divided by 365.
How many corporations have experienced fines that make them stop committing crime? Are they in the room with us right now?

But but but Europe is going to kick big US tech in the teeth!
