Any punishment to the company will be paid by it's customers anyway... For any large company fines and legal fees are calculated in as a cost of doing business. Prison for execs will just lead to fall guys getting the job while the real beneficiaries i.e. major stakeholders will pull the string from the shadows. If you want this to stop you have to go after them. Something like community service or % of their stock holdings going to the victims would be more effective imo.
Edit: You may not like what i'm saying but deep down you know i'm right.
Guess we shouldn't ever punish them then.
Yeah, it makes no difference, the system is rigged, you have to go after the real beneficiaries.
