I've said this for going on 2 decades now.

Having these fines from the 1930s arent hurting companies today, they are just a minor inconvenience.

Now, make the fines start at 40% of last years gross revenue (before they can do any tricky accounting to avoid shit by making their net income artificially lower, and also while accounting for any parent company/subsidiary bullshit), and it will cease to be an evil tax and start to be an actual fucking threat to the company.

and if the company fails and falls because of it, well, thats their fault. No one forced them to be evil and vile.
