Who would you jail? How would you decide whos responsible? You can't jail the entire company.

But with a sufficient size fine you can make everyone at the company regret that decision, directly or indirectly.

Who would I jail? The C-officers. Your shit show, your responsibility. If you can't trust your employees, figure out why or do the work yourself.

I've always been hugely in favor of it. It's the one change that could maybe justify their gargantuan salaries -- if your company causes harm and suffering, the leaders absolutely need to be put on the hook.

You punish everyone in proportion to their responsibility

But they're not suggesting they be punished at all...
