This topic was recently the topic of a blog on Anomalousdata.com. Mom and I were talking about this. In addition to having them work a minimum wage job, the government should treat them like dead-beat parents who won't pay child support, pulling their savings and garnishing their wages and putting the money into a pension fund for all the poor souls who lost out. Really, that is what should happen with every dollar found to be gotten through fraud. It should go into a pension fund.
What if corporations were required to pay for pensions, but rather than having their own accounts, they would have to pay into a federal account, say Social Security. Have them pay in the equivalent of 50% (or whatever a workable/beneficial percent would be) of the CEO's salary each year. That might encourage more equity in wages. That way, there could be a federal social security/pension program that would be able to take care of everyone. I would suggest this on top of the normal Social Security money taken out of wages.
