Let's compare. In China, two people were executed for a tainted milk scandal [1], In the US, Purdue and the Sackler family were significantly responsible for the opioid epidemic. They knowingly liked about OxyContin. Not only have they avoided prison but the government tried to give them a deal where they could pay a fraction o the fortune they made doing it over a number of years so it would essentially be paid by earnings on the billions they get to keep [2]. Fines are the cost of doing business. They are nothing more than an expense item. People who knowingly cause people to die or otherwise cause great harm as leaders of a compnany should go to prison way more often. Every penny the Sacklers made should be seized by the government.
