Until we remove the corruption, corporate crimes will continue.

Though corporations in America routinely break the law, often with fatal consequences, it's fair to say America has no corporate criminals, because to have criminals, you need a criminal system that identifies criminal conduct and holds it to account. America does not have that.

When American corporations break the law, the individuals in the corporation are generally insulated from criminal liability because it's considered unfair to hold anyone – even the millionaire top execs paid to be the person with whom the buck stops – criminally liable for institutional crimes.
