Financial "punishments" clearly don't stop corruption.

They just don't, because they constitute a miniscule amount of what the corrupt organizations bring in on a single day.

I wonder what is a better punishment? I would not complain if the death penalty was an option for psychopaths who wilingly kill and abuse people without remorse.

Or, perhaps, if the death penalty was dangled out as the only other option if they chose to go to jail and work in a sweatshop to make something basic and important to most people in the world.

Every CEO should be made to eat his company's products, if it's food,or wear it, if it's clothing, or, follow this meme out to it's logical end, if you will.
