I long for the day when people who think about doing this kind of shit worry about jail time, not just slap on the wrist fines.

At a minimum they should have their business license suspended for a period of time.

Let's see how many customers a business gets when there's the risk that said business gets shut down for a month.

With the requirement that all staff below management still get paid regular salary.
