They're paying a fine
Are they even implementing safety measures? Doubt it.
How much is 18bn of their 200 bn yearly revenue? 9%. That's not bad.
Except it's not actually 18bn. It's 18bn to be paid over 10 years, 1,8bn/year. Which makes it less than 1% of the yearly revenue.
I'm not sure what you're arguing against.
Not everything is an argument online ;)
Just pointing out that it's actually a good percentage for once. But then realising it's tiny per year, due to the way it's layed out.
