    The company, which operates more than 19,000 discount stores worldwide, agreed to pay the $12m fine

    In March, Dollar General announced that its 2023 fiscal year operating profit was $2.4bn.

    So they have 19,000 stores, on average profiting $126,000, and their share of the fine is $630?

    That fine should be 12mil per day to actually see some action. One time it’s just the cost of doing business
