Because of the last few decades of weak law enforcement, lying and breaking the law is seeking profits.

Most large companies make very calculated decisions to break the law while weighing the risk of getting caught. In many cases, the fines are tolerable when considering much larger profit.

Robber barons were mostly not breaking the law. The laws were written to stop them.
