      Not sure how this would change anything compared to life in prison?

      Do these people get put in jail?

        It’s rare for criminal action of corporate leaders to be charged, period.

        I think a better starting place would be to change this. Be much more willing to hold malicious corporate leaders accountable for their crimes. They far too often fall behind the security of a corporate veil, which if investigated, usually ends up with a fine, a slap on the wrist.

        Prosecutors are allowed to pierce the corporate veil for criminal actions, but they rarely do so.

          I agree, but being able to not be directly prosecuted is basically why corporations and the idea of incorporating exist at all.

          It has always been about minimizing risk to the business owner.

          It is bullshit and needs to change.

      The death penalty still exists (well, in many US states it does), it just doesn’t get applied to those who are Too Rich To Die.

        I don’t want death. Far too simple.

        My solution would be drop them off on an uninhabited island.

        Have cameras and make it a real survival program. People can do votes for stuff they want. Help fund it. If they live sweet of they don’t survive then also sweet.

        They have no remorse for the damage they do to the planet and humans.

      I think it’s adorable that you still think the justice system is actually made for…you know…justice.

        Oh no I’m not an idiot. It’s just what I’d like. Of course nothing has happened. So it’s been and gone
