For this to be criminal it'd probably require intent to be proven which is difficult without a "smoking gun" of an email being like "do this to avoid taxes or be fired"- CEO. For it just to be civil fines is a lot simpler to show. Their inevitable appeal and potential reduction in fine is a different issue.

Which is hilarious because ignorance is not a defence for poor people.

the poor are not, according to the american criminal system; 'people'. mutually exclusive categories.

It almost sounds like you're saying corporations are not people. Don't let the conservatives hear you say that.
