That's a pretty good list. I would say for 1 and 4 it should be in the past 50 years, to allow for companies to change. I would also add that anything the parent company or a company owned by the parent company that violates these rules also counts. Also, what is a "golden parachute"
A "golden parachute" is basically a clause in the contract of a CEO or other higher up where the company agrees to pay severance benefits. I don't have a problem with severance pay in general but some of these things are basically "No matter how much I embezzle and defraud, no matter how many people I kill, no matter how much damage I do, I get tens or hundreds of millions of dollars, to the degree of actually incentivizing getting hired and fired as much as possible.
That's pretty stupid.
Exactly.
