What we have is a severe lack of enforcement of the laws we do have.

We do have legal mechanisms to hold the individual people criminally liable for criminal offenses the corporation commits, the problem is we don't enforce it.

Boeing just got off scott free for killing 338 people. DOJ told the judge to dismiss the case.

We've also neglected to enforce our own anti-monopoly laws for far too long, and most recently when there could have been actual, real change, we let Google go with nothing more than a slap on the wrist.

The laws aren't the problem, the corrupt and paid for DoJ is the problem.

I mean we live in a country where 'defund the police' and 'eliminate jails' are considered somewhat mainstream legal positions (In that there are many politicians elected to office throughout the country who have held these views). All of its stems from a lack of desire to enforce standards.

    Given that neither the police nor jails are relevant to corporate violations of the law, do you have a point other than that you don't understand either of those?
