    You know what, if a company can be a person with the same rights and privileges thanks to citizens United, why can’t a company be jailed? Let’s just say Tesla broke the law and must spend the appropriate amount of time behind bars, unable to do business.

      Or make the CEO’s liable, as they are responsible for overseeing the company. Fine the corporation, fine the CEO, and jail them… it seems they can’t prevent their corporation from causing harm, and need to be held personally accountable

      If their job is so high paying, I figure that’s an acceptable risk of being a CEO. I’d take that offer—making damn sure I’m not having my assets seized and going to prison because someone else is corrupt/criminal
