I agree the US is soft on punishing white-collar crime. But Sackler family comes to mind. And of course there's Sam Bankman-Fried. Bernie Madoff, etc.

- tjpnz 3y agoNo member of the Sackler family nor Purdue's executives ever faced prison time.
- LanceH 3y agoFor breaking what law? Also, how is nobody in the government responsible? It really feels like the Sackler family has been bundled up as a nice solution to the whole thing.
- Loughla 3y agoNo member of the Sackler's ever went to prison. I can't speak to SBF, but Madoff made the crucial error of defrauding other rich people. I bet if he'd have stuck to old people and poor people he never would've been convicted.
