Any justice system which allows that to happen without imprisoning the people responsible for the rest of their lives is completely broken, says me.&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;s not casual cynicism either, at this point it&amp;#x27;s professional cynicism because we&amp;#x27;ve all seen this film 1000 times before and we know how it typically ends. Personally I&amp;#x27;d reserve the use of words such as &amp;quot;toxic&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;dangerous&amp;quot; for Philips&amp;#x27; CPAP machines and their leadership.&lt;p&gt;They&amp;#x27;re going to pay less than $1 million per victim while their annual profits are in the billions. Would you feel good about that amount if they killed your dad, mom, brother, sister, son or daughter?</text><parent_chain><item><author>dash2</author><text>I have a strong aversion to comments like this, because they come across as extremely generic.

They will get away with it because the managerial class is generally not held responsible for their actions.
