minus-squareWooki@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down2·6 months agoGood to know you dont mind the profiteering off fraud. Fine is a penalty, not a cost of business, not a sales tax. A penalty. 100k fine on 1 mill refund is nothing. 1 mill fine on 1 mill refund is a fine.
minus-squareOokami38@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·6 months agoMy guy. Reading comprehension. I did not say 10%. I said 10% ON TOP OF ANY EARNINGS. As in, if a corp earns 1 million, the fine levied would be 1.1 million. Christ, go back to 2nd grade.
