If we want self-regulation to work, we would (at minimum) need tort reform to make it easier for plaintiffs— and on top of that, we'd probably need strict limitations on subsidiaries and the asset shell games played therewith, greater ability to impose punitive damages on negligent companies, and (much) greater ability to hold owners and/or shareholders personally responsible for the corporation's debts if it can't pay out adequate compensation to the injured, plus a much greater willingness on behalf of governments to pursue criminal charges— killing someone through negligence is a crime even if you do it from behind a desk or through a corporation. |
