Compare Walmart committing bribery to me attempting to bribe my way out of speeding ticket.

But that is how the ticket industry works...you get the ticket, hire a lawyer, the lawyer “negotiates” a deal to plead no contest in exchange for no points and a lower $ penalty or at your option take traffic school ( a local private company that no doubt “bribes” its way in to those chushy exclusive county government contracts) and the court will dismiss your ticket like it never happened.
Unlike Walmart which gets to stay a corporation in good standing. And it's executives who suffer no personal harm.
Walmart allegedly bribed foreign officials they didn’t try to bribe the “cops” for bringing the bribery charges. Although you can’t distinguish the legal difference, it doesn’t mean there isn’t one.
Executives do go to jail quite regularly for bribery and companies can and are judicially dissolved also.
For example I was in Las Vegas during the Shot Show when the FBI rolled right into the convention center and arrested executives/VPs of Smith and Wesson for bribing an undercover FBI agent, posing as a African delegate, for a large government contract.
Or how about the VW executives arrested (and convicted) for the emissions scandal?
Or the drug company Executives and CEO recently charged with conspiracy to distribute controlled substances and defraud the US?
