Want to fix this? It’ll take a) jail time, and b) asset seizure.
Corporate structure deliberate distributes responsibility for things like this such that:
It’s very hard to find one person to blame, let alone prove malfeasance.
If by some chance you do find a smoking gun, the fine for doing so is usually less than the profit of the transgression
If, eg, Howard Schultz and his direct-reports faced fines and/or jail time directly, and those fines were orders of magnitude the harms of the action, then you’d see some of this stop.

I would offer that we hit the entire corporate/franchise structure with a % of revenue fine. That shit will get fixed real quick.
