Well they should have fined Facebook for the Cambridge Analytica scandal, a couple of trillions. That would have taught a lot of companies about ~~ethics~~ how to not lose all your money.

Instead we issue paltry fines to corporations. Simply, because we have convinced the public that corporations are job creators. Who doesn't love a job creator!?
