    So I just found out that is related corporate taxes and not individual taxes. In Italy the people who signed documents are criminally responsible for corporation’s illegal actions.

    In USA individuals are not held responsible.. Not the same as Italy.

    So any wrong doing by corporations in Italy will means that their managers will be prosecuted..

    That’s the way to do it! Don’t just fine the company (that’s just considered the cost of doing business), but go after the executives involved too, with jail time and personal fines. It’s the only way to make businesses follow the law.

  3. Aaaah common. Share the names. 😂😂. Funnily enough- in other countries execs on trial for business failings were asked to use their own lawyers rather than company ones …. Amazon saving at its best

    The Italian justice system is weak and corrupt. This will never lead to any harm to bezos.
