I mean, aren't CEOs massive pay justified because they supposedly take on ultimate responsibility for the company?
If a company does something criminal under their watch, then even if they didn't give the orders they have been criminally negligent - surely?
Now, mind, I don't think that they should necessarily be the person punished most - the person's down the chain more responsible should serve more time. But the person at the top shouldn't get away free.
Regardless though I agree - fines with teeth are the most important thing.
