Good thing we (the US) lost the war, or this lady would probably have her own team of lobbyists running their country.

    The death penalty is always wrong.
    Murder is not a punishment and once you’ve stripped her of her ill-got gains there is no longer any reason to kill her.

      I hear you but if I’m honest, and tomorrow America announced it was going to execute every billionaire, I’m not going to put up too much of a protest.

          In other words, you don’t murder disarmed prisoners of war.

          During class war they are the enemy and deserve what comes to them. If taken alive and their weapon of war removed, they don’t need to be dealt with the same way.

          Once they are no longer a threat you can work on rehabilitation and restitution.

            First off, I agree with you.

            But…second…I struggle with the rehabilitation bit. Some people cannot be rehabilitated. It is a hard truth I have learned, coupled with pain and regret, many times in my life. I’m just curious what you think the course of action should be at that point?

            I’m not suggesting death/murder, but I do struggle with the idea that if they’re miserable, and the people around them are made miserable, and the people trying to help them are made miserable…what do you do?

      billionaires aren’t people. their existence requires a river of blood, and they all deserve death, regardless of the states opinion.

      I think its good to remind them they can be killed. I think they forget.

    I don’t think we should have billionaires but celebrating state sponsored murder is fucking gross
