Chipotle has agreed to a six-figure settlement in D.C. after prosecutors “identified over 800 potential violations of D.C.’s child labor laws over the past three years"
And yet again, basically nothing for violating child labor laws.
My take on this is that any and all revenue that can be identified as the product of the crime should be automatically forfeit. The fine should be assessed in addition to the lost revenue. Profiting from crime shouldn’t be allowed, and getting caught should be too much risk for it to be worthwhile.
If losing the revenue threatens the existence of your business, that’s too effing bad.
All fines should be proportional to gross revenue.
If your business is fined, it should cut deep, anything else isn’t a punishment
