It's like if someone stole $1000 worth of merchandise from a store and the only punishment is a $1000 fine... and you get to keep what you stole.
Not the best analogy... In San Francisco if you steal $950 worth of merchandise from a store, there is no fine or punishment, and you get to keep what you stole.
- bee_rider 2y agoWould you say that’s a good thing or a bad thing? If you think it is a bad thing, then it seems like a fitting analogy, right?
- rahimnathwani 2y agoIf GP's point is about the justice system in general, then yes. If GP's point is about this fine in particular, or about how big corporations are treated in general, then it's a poor analogy.
