If the shareholders refuse to punish the criminal executives, then the public must:

Wal-Mart's Mexico probe could lead to departures at the top. Long and short, top executives covered up a history of bribes in Mexico which can "likely" lead to more regulatory scrutiny etc. Bullshit. Eric Holder won't do a fucking thing. The SEC won't do a fucking thing. No one will. The Walton family doesn't care. Hey, bribery is how things get done. But if someone were to call for a boycott and others joined in? The family would cut those fuckers off at the knees. Sure, the replacements would be just as evil, but they would be reminded that they are servants--replaceable servants. It's a useful exercise.
