Cool it's so nice that they get to keep all the profits they stole from us while paying only a portion of those profits as a fine. Justice has been served!

Fun unrelated side note: if you add stryofoam to molotov cocktails it turns them into napalm cocktails!

$3.3 million is nothing compared to the profits they reaped by running the scam. This was a gift by the Trump administration.

If the fine isn't greater than the cost to consumers (which in this case is far, far more than their profits from the fraud), then this is essentially the government endorsing this behavior.

i never understood why when the people at these companies that commit crimes never see an hour inside a prison? wage theft is the same story. these are crimes. they need to be brought before a court and judge to determine consequences. paying some fine isn’t an appropriate consequence for the damage they’ve done with this one action.

This only involves three egg producers? How are 3 chickens going to come up with 53 million eggs?

So, basically a light slap on the wrist for ridiculous profits. Got it.

Make them pay back every penny that they gained by illegally colluding to raise prices.

This is simple, and thats how you know the clowns at the justice department aren't serious. You're giving them alight warning to NOT GET CAUGHT again.

I don't give two shits if they go out of business. Capitalism can only work if the markers are free and you can't point to a single free market these days. Three companies own every industry and fix prices. When thats done with illegal drugs, they're called Cartels.
