Fines that are a significant percentage of global revenue.
Personal consequences for the people who made those decisions. For example if I started an illegal casino I'd be looking at jail time. Meanwhile these guys are literally walking away.
The problem with revenue based fines is payroll makes up a large portion of a companies expenses.
This would just lead to job losses as the company makes cuts to pay the fine.
You mean an actual punishment.
