In Reply to: Those fines aren't large enough. posted by ghost of olddude55 on September 30, 2021 at 03:43:11:
"Multinational corporations with hundreds of billions in earnings, seven hundred grand is less expensive than re-designing hundreds of workplaces."You're right. It won't be the multinational corporations that will be bankrupted. It will be the smaller companies with 100+ employees. And who will that benefit? The multinational corporations.
Oh, and as I read it, the tenfold increase in fines doesn't just apply to the Covid-19 vaccine mandate.
