It's not illegal if the fine is less than the amount of money they make doing it.

And that's why we need fines that are a percentage of total company revenue. Breaks are an easy one to calculate: if you keep people working for the full 8 hours instead of giving them a paid 15-minute break, you're getting 3.35% more productivity out of them. So every day there's a report of somebody being denied a break, fine the company 3.5% of their average daily income. They rack up three strikes, assume it's happening chronically and fine them 3.5% of their average monthly income and conduct surprise monthly inspections for the next year. They have another infraction within a year of the first one, fine them according to their annual income.

All of a sudden, Amazon starts caring a whole lot about making sure that every single franchise follows local break laws.
