That's like a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a penny to them.

the agencies involved here are not able to fine much more than that. But I guess a fair question is why are they only fining for this stuff after the fact? Do they not inspect periodically?

Also the widow is suing Disney for wrongful death, so hopefully that will hit them a little harder.

I don't doubt there's some limit to the fine, I'm more trying to point out the absurdity of how low that is for Disney. Surely we could concoct a system where the fine is based on some percentage rather than a flat rate that is probably decades out of sync with inflation.
