      You have just as much access to those laws, my guy.

Except maybe filing fees? Dunno. The difference is that regular people are not generally aware of what their options are, or they get shitty advice from bad sources.
      Also, a lot of what Jones has been doing is blatant manipulation, and courts don't actually like seeing that. Subtle manipulation and exploitation, you can get away with without people noticing. If you are technically following the rules, even more so. Announcing that you're trying to manipulate the legal system on a public platform and outlining exactly how will generally get you burned, however.

Especially when the person in question is already getting slapped with massive damages. If it's discovered later that someone lied under oath in a crucial way that swayed a case, that might go to trial. But when it's obvious at the time, and the person in question is already being punished (possibly even losing the case because they were caught lying, juries tend not to like that shit), it's gilding the lily.

It’s just the way the courts are designed, that the only means of punishment is paying damages, which he is doing is best to get out of while continuing to peddle his lies.

      You can't imprison a corporation, but you can execute one. A measure that should be utilised far more freely than it is in my opinion. No person is physically harmed after all, only financially harmed like from a heavy fine.
      Confiscate all it's assets, collect on its realisable debtors, cancel its debts. Government then pays out on its former debts based on the court's judgement of fairness and legitamacy, guided but not bound by preexisting contracts. That avoids a lot of shenanigans of people owing money to themselves. The court could just discard those types of debts as illegitimate in their judgement. The guiding principal would be that those responsible for this mess are last in line for any payments.
      Of course this action is damaging to legitimate companies that do business with the punished corporation in good faith, but arguably less so than regular bankruptcy. This approach only to be used when a corporation is convicted of operating in bad faith and/or engaging in fraud. Directors of such companies should also get lengthy bans from owning or running a business.
      Jones could continue to hawk crap, but infowarz would be gone so he would have to do it on another channel, which he neither owns nor runs. He would do so as an employee under the direction of someone else who would be held responsible for his future behaviour.

      @@LobsterMobsterBob Filing for bankruptcy does not necessarily mean that a person's income is limited to a certain amount. The eligibility to file for bankruptcy and the amount of debt that can be discharged depends on the type of bankruptcy and the individual's financial circumstances.
      For example, in the case of Chapter 7 bankruptcy, there is a means test which compares the individual's income to the median income of the state they live in. If an individual's income is above the median, they may not be eligible to file for chapter 7 and may need to file chapter 13 instead.
      In chapter 13, the individual is allowed to keep their assets, but they must pay back some or all of their debts through a repayment plan over 3 to 5 years. The amount of debt that must be repaid is determined by their disposable income, which is the income left after living expenses have been paid. So if someone is earning $520,000 a year and have high living expenses, they may still be able to file for chapter 13 bankruptcy and keep most of their income, but they will have to pay back a portion of their debt over the course of the repayment plan.
      It's important to note that filing for bankruptcy should be the last resort and it's best to consult a bankruptcy attorney and get a clear understanding of the process and how it will affect your financial situation before making a decision.
