Hillary and corporate liability
So Hillary doesn't propose to ban the manufacture of guns but thinks the manufacturer should be liable in the event someone uses the gun to kill somebody.
I wonder if she would support legislation making firms like Goldman Sachs liable when they sell financial products that blow up critical financial institutions? I wonder if she would support such legislation making them liable if it were shown that they knew or should have known this result was probable? I wonder if she would be willing to include the firm's management in the liability?
I bet she wouldn't. But it would be fun to have her explain why in a opresidential debate.
