It's only murder if you can't afford to defend yourself in court ... or if you can literally buy off the police ... or the judge ... or the entire court system ... or the state ... or even buy the entire country's government

Switch the top and bottom panels. Leave the "dead patient" panel labeled as 'murder'. Re-label the "dead CEO" panel as 'self-defense'.

The funny thing too is a lot of American's are for the death penalty so 🤷♂️
-
I'm against the death penalty as a function of the legal system, but when the legal system is no longer effective other means become necessary.

I bet every $100 in a billionaires account is someones life destroyed in some poor country.

I believe the standard theory is at a certain threshold success is measured by those you have stepped on to climb higher. I'm not sure there's a set benchmark worth but I can guarantee you by the time you hit a billion you have for sure negatively impacted someone's life to get where you are.
Excess wealth needs to be banned but for it to truly work the majority of people need to see it and sadly we live in a world where too many people see themselves as embarrassed billionaires simply waiting for their opportunity.
I make damn good money. I have more in common with the man begging on the corner than I do with Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, et al. More people need to come to terms with that reality.

$100,000,000 that's it. At that point we give you a gold "I won capitalism," trophy, and you either retire, and are taxed at 100% of assets above $100,000,000 or, you don't and are taxed at 100% on assets above $100,000,000. This applies to both liquid and non-liquid assets.
Also you can leave your children $5,000,000 in total assets per child over your entire lifetime. The rest of your estate goes into The Sovereign Fund for Humanity's Poor.

It's not murder cause it generates profit in our economic system.
-
First rule of capitalism is that it's morally fine if you earn money out of it AND you're rich.
-
Is self-defense murder, or just sparkling killing?
-
People with this amount of money just want it all.
-
Can we just drop this already

Are you the NYT?

No amount of "let them eat cake" tier commentary is going to stop it. Because the core problem is that the rich own everything.

Propaganda of the Deed doesn't work. However the spectacle has created some level of class consciousness. The organizing we are seeing seems to be around memes. Hopefully this momentum doesn't end. People are still talking about Harambe and how Epstein didn't kill himself. Dropping it is unlikely. Sorry it makes you uncomfortable.
-
Yes, please. The white washing here is ridiculous. There's no way this CEO is responsible for only a single death.
-
Drop for profit Healthcare and make life saving services a necessity?
or drop as many CEOs as possible?
