I say we start arresting board members until thing stop sucking. Death penalty on the table.
Death penalty is barbaric, lets not sink to that level.
How about we sink to this level?
The death penalty's only ethical application is when the subject is uncontainable by other means. The rich are proving that's exactly the type of criminals they are, and when they do get close to getting caught the one guy who's testimony could bury them mysteriously dies by 'suicide' at exactly the moment the cameras malfunction. I can't think of a cabal of crooks more deserving of the death penalty.
I get where you're coming from, but we as a society haven't even TRIED to hold billionaires accountable. Do they make it difficult? Of course they do, but a huge percentage of the population still look up to the ultra rich and think they're geniuses who deserve it.
If society ACTUALLY got fed up and demanded they be held accountable, and jail and seizing their assets wasn't enough, then you consider more severe forms of punishment. As it stands right now we're barely handing out the equivalent of an occasional speeding ticket to these people and wondering why it isn't effective.
