Ok so how does a cancer kill its host?
It grows until it consumes so many nutrients that the other living cells don’t get enough. The host literally starves even if he eats plentifully.
The same applies for the US: The billionaires are not only hoarding wealth, but by doing so they’re crippling the economy for workers and everybody besides themselves.
If I have a company, where I intentionally make choices that kill my costumers, that would make me liable for manslaughter, me and anyone involved in the deaths. why healthcare billionaires are not liable?
same with every other billionaire who profits from human suffering and deaths.
No, actually, it doesn’t make you liable for manslaughter. It probably doesn’t even rise to the level of civil liability for wrongful death. They are compliant with the law, and they make sure of that by having their lawyers write the laws. The “anyone involved in the deaths” includes the deceased themselves, who is determined to bear primary responsibility.
We can override the laws they are writing (Guillotine Party) or we can suspend the laws to hold them accountable (guillotine party). But jailing them without a conviction just isn’t feasible.
fuck the law. those laws let them off the hook because they bribed (lobby) to have those laws.
Just because a mass murder is legal does not mean it has to go unpunished.
The holocaust was 100% legal, and no one has ever complained that it is unfair to prosecute nazis for not breaking the law.
when the law is so unfair, you cannot use the law as an argument.
I don’t think you’re understanding me. I’ll see if I can rephrase.
There is no “jail them for life” option without the law. If you try to imprison them without the law, the law will just come in and free them. You’re suggesting a middle option that is simply not feasible.
I’m asking you to choose between:
“Guillotine Party”, a political party, much like the Tea Party, dedicated to stripping the problem-class of their excessive political power, perhaps by creating laws to justify their permanent imprisonment. We politically, figuratively decapitate them. This approach can (theoretically) jail them for life, by creating the law that would allow it to happen.
“guillotine party”, where we solve the problem-class in much the same way that 18th century France solved their aristocracy problem. We literally decapitate them. This approach will not jail them for life; this approach will execute them for anti-revolutionary activities.
While the specific details will vary wildly, these are the only two general options we have available to us to effect reform: politics, or force.
