10. Regardless of the legal structure of the Business, officers of the Business may be found personally financially liable for civil and criminal fines and penalties where substantial Business wrongdoing is determined by a court of law. Violation of the spirit or letter of this act will result in fines equal to the monetary losses of employees, customers, suppliers, or the public as a result of the violation and a tenfold penalty. Fines and penalties are to be distributed proportionately to those persons suffering financial loss after deduction of court costs. The court may in its discretion also impose prison time for persons within the business directly involved in the violation or any persons in positions above those directly causing the violation where negligence of oversight is apparent. Now is the time to work with your neighbors to impeach the puppet masters, the corporations that have been rigging the system for their own benefit for decades. Get the Corporate Freedom Act on the ballot in your state, your community, or even your neighborhood watch group. It is time to recognize who it is that we should really be terrified by and to act to protect our selves, our communities, and our nation.
