Crimes are committed by individuals, not companies. If execs at VW break the law, you go after the execs, you don’t put the whole company in jail or turf out all it’s employees on the streets.
I’m not saying there shouldn’t be repercussions, check my comment again, but there’s no point putting the bank tellers out of work because their bosses, bosses, bosses, bosses boss broke the law.
I'd be on board with this position if it was applied consistently. But it's not. Companies take political action, companies take credit for innovation, etc. The whole basis of a company is that it limits the liability of the people who own it.
