Hypothetically, is there a specific number of billionaires that would have to be executed to have some sort of impact? IMO, even if the rich have just a little incentive not to be the most egregious profiteers, it’ll make some impact.
Allow me to tell you the story of the starfish and the beach…
A young girl was walking along a beach upon which thousands of starfish had been washed up during a terrible storm. When she came to each starfish, she would pick it up, and throw it back into the ocean. People watched her with amusement.
She had been doing this for some time when a man approached her and said, “Little girl, why are you doing this? Look at this beach! You can’t save all these starfish. You can’t begin to make a difference!”
The girl seemed crushed, suddenly deflated. But after a few moments, she bent down, picked up another starfish, and hurled it as far as she could into the ocean. Then she looked up at the man and replied,
“Well, I made a difference for that one!”
IF you can only do one push-up, thats enough. IF you can only walk around the block, its a start. An avalanche begins with the movement of a single pebble.
I thought we say: we need more flesh for the prison-industrial complex.
Although, sentence length doesn’t seem to be correlated to deterrence, that doesn’t mean the inevitability of imprisonment isn’t a legitimate deterrent at all. For example, the belief that there’s a high likelihood of getting caught does increase deterrence.
I mean… Luigi achieved his goal. That CEO is definitely no longer alive.
I don’t know if that accomplishes anything for people who are suffering from unfair healthcare policies
Okay so that’s a different point.
Ignorance isn’t a form of evidence. You “not knowing” something has no external meaning.
Haha, I’ll ping you again in two years and follow up on the results 🤷♀️

Isn’t that just what we say when we imprison people?

Just 3 IMO, because 1 is only an anomaly, 2 is just coincidence.
But 3 is a pattern, then behavior will adjust.
You’re right but I am not allowed to post the quickest solution on here
