    Not really something that is legal that should be illegal, but I would love to see this nonsense that corporate executives can’t be held criminally responsible (the corporation is) for their illegal acts. I think it would correct an awful lot of shitty things corporations do really quickly (assuming enforcement).

      I think all those in the management chain should be held responsible. Maybe with a weighting of the proportion of those under them engaged in the criminal behaviour.

        It should be treated as in the military, “I was just following orders” is not an excuse.

        Yeah, I like that! 👍 Corporations don’t make decisions… Those people do
