Subject: RE: BS: Corporate Death Penalty
Corporate Death Penalty sounds like a good idea, with a few adjustments.

The idea appears to be that the business is wound up with all its assets being sold and paid to the victims or returned to the shareholders. But the shareholders are responsible if they fail to keep their company on the straight and narrow, so they should have to carry some of that penalty.

But I can't see it being applied in the UK - shame, it's the only version of the death penalty I'd favour5.
