Keep in mind that this is not about punishment but about damages. 75k goes a long way for an individual and afaik we don't have this system of punitive damages.

Keep in mind that this is not about punishment but about damages. 75k goes a long way for an individual and afaik we don't have this system of punitive damages. The state might collect punitive money in a criminal case (not a civil case). Sometimes I feel like it might be good to meet in the middle (i.e. some amount of punishment awarded to the plaintiff, also as compensation for having had to take a corporation to court and presumably spending months in stress), but then I'm not sure where the line should be. Or perhaps a criminal case should be joined onto this, where the same judge (already familiar with all the details) also decides on a punitive amount going to the state.
