Wow, a whole $1 million. They’ll notice that for like seven seconds.
They won't notice, as fines are already in the cost projections.
The depressing fact this is already in their calculations really suggests fines should be vary based on a percentage of the company’s profits, not a set number for all.
Or it shouldn't be a fine, but criminal prosecution for the executives responsible.
