Should be a fine of $10,000 per customer whose data was breached. Plus any costs associated from each customer for stolen identities. Plus cost for identity protection services for each customer.

Good. Then the government can auction off your infrastructure (really the US's since we paid for most of it) and the next company won't fuck around with data.
Oh, and if the company tries to hide data breaches, it's a $1M fine per customer breached plus 10% yearly gross revenue as a fine, on top of the above.
