Apparently the jurists have no understanding of economics. Corporations are composed of investors and employees. There is no way to punish a corporation without punishing a lot of innocent people. Ford will write their check, and then adjust. This adjustment will cost jobs because it is not always possible to charge customers of the products they sell.
Worse for society, STUPIDITY gets rewarded.
Apparently the jurists have no understanding of economics.Simply put, the average juror (like the average voter) is stupid, or at least not even close to smart enough to be dealing with $17 million.
