25. That would about do it
Revoking a few corporate charters in case of severe crimes would get the attention of execs. Things like fraud, Enron/Worldcom-style book-cooking, third or fourth offense for hiring illegals, multiple felonies, etc.

But to know that such a punishment could be handed down, along with actual speedy trials? I think that would go a long way towards demonstrating to ordinary Americans that the system is being fixed.
