>>>>The shareholders would still be richer and don't have to fear punishment >>This is actually an interesting thought. What if they did have to fear punishment? What about people who may have invested in a fund that bought shares? Should the fund managers fear punishment? Should the people that bought into the fund be punished? This is where the "punishment for those who benefit" gets complicated. It's hard to work out the people that should NOT be punished.
