>why should the government be in the business of being a babysitter to these spoiled executives

>If they can't do their job without committing crimes, send them to jail

I'm getting mixed messages here. So you want them to be the Government's problem or not?

Yes, the government should investigate crimes and prosecute them. They should not make consent decrees and babysit them.
But the government ends up babysitting them either way... Either operationally, or in imprisoning them...

So if your goal is to not have governmental babysitting, are you advocating the death penalty for corporate crimes?

I hope the other poster ignores you from here on out, this is such a shitty way to argue with someone.

It's a false dichotomy dressed up as something else.
