Unsure why there aren't percentage based fines in the US. Strong lobbying preventing legislation with teeth from passing?
We know they're a publicly traded company, we know their revenue, profit, etc. -- why not fine them a percent based on this data? It's a little more tricky with private companies, but a certification process, and a undisclosed fine in those cases work too.

Strong lobbying preventing legislation with teeth from passing? that is the basic gist. our federal government doesn't do much of anything for the people it represents, compared to what it does for corporations, lobbyists, and career politicians.
