Yeah and all the corporations that went along with breaking the law are forgiven for the past present and future.

Not to put too fine a point on things, but while a corporation can be held legally responsible for a number of things, it cannot "go along" with anything. "Going along" implies that a decision was made. Corporations are merely brainless legal entities. They don't make decisions. The people who work for them or sit on their boards make decisions. If laws were broken, they were actually broken by people, not corporations.

So lets rephrase that comment:

Yeah and all the corporations whose employees went along with breaking the law are forgiven for the past present and future.

There. Now it's a true statement.
