No jail time no justice. The fines and settlements are just the cost of business anymore.

Until people at the top of the food chain start doing some serious jail time this type of thing will continue in perpetuity.

All white collar crimes have little jail time. You could rob people of billions and you might do a couple years. It's mind boggling. Tells you whose votes really matter.

Even then it's not a deal. Watch some American Greed.

They still only get one vote individually, but their money buys many more.

And the fines aren’t even enough to hurt. The cost of a fine should start with the cost to clean up, add worst case medical costs, and then comes the real fines.

Can we get a list of the executives and call them out personally?

If you really want action there is likely a charity already working to hold them responsible. You can join them. Will investigate.
edit: Food & Water Watch is mentioned in the article.
edit: also Physicians for Social Responsibility. Both organizations have "get involved" sections on their site.

No reason not to do it again at the next town. What are local politicians doing about this bullshit besides taking bribes?

Yea the amount is laughable. They literally do not care about this fine. Fines should be a percentage of their net worth. Not some arbitrary amount they they have no issue paying.

and we bailout/subsidize these corporations/industries in the form of inflationary monetary policy. we print more, each dollar is worth less, everyone suffers debasement except for a handful nearest/friendliest with the monetary system/banks/institutions/etc... all so a few executives can buy vacation houses/yachts, pay their lawyers...oh, and pay their fines/settlements...
inflationary fiat money is the addictive drug that fuels the wealth gap, making the rich richer and poor poorer... 2% inflation = -50% net worth in 35 years.... inflationary monetary policies are, in essence, monetary slavery... hours/days/years of our hard work and time eroded into nothing... yet time and time again we're told this is ONLY way an economy can function.
if you understand/sympathize with any of this i highly recommend looking into bitcoin, not "Crypto" not "FTX" ... just OG Bitcoin. It's a peaceful revolution and grass roots for the people by the people decentralized consensus- based on math, energy and game theory... it's humanities first "rules without rulers" system of money... inclusive and unbiased... whether your know it or not bitcoin is there for you- it's not going away... just as free speech allows us to express ideas, bitcoin allows us to freely express our value with one another. it has and will change humanity for the better. meat-based monetary policy is clearly entropic and corruptible(ed) and with this technological discovery we now have something better.
