Jon Stewart helped give an explanation for Wednesday night the exact difference between firms and people: when folks get in bother with the law, they can’t pay a shitload of cash to settle the whole lot out of courtroom. However companies? Sure they can!
Stewart went through instance after instance of huge corporations paying settlements in cases of fraud, using a weird John Carter machine of measurement, and sarcastically saying, “I’m sorry I committed systemic fraud for years. How about I provide you with a minimize of it?!”
Since the maxim for corporate The usa seems to be, as Stewart put it, “Don’t do the crime if that you would be able to’t pay the nominal wonderful”
But what in reality stunned Stewart used to be Johnson & Johnson actually bribing medical doctors to prescribe pointless medicine to the aged and little children. It’s so shady and screwed up, “you’re not even allowed to do that in Grand Theft Auto!”
