    It’s unfortunate this is the reality that people are living with. Events like this will become more frequent if the billionaire class doesn’t do something about it.

      In today’s world people should be afraid to flaunt their wealth, pursue these big positions. There’s so much inequality, I wouldn’t want to be the one to have all the goods. I dont condone murdering people for it, we should eat them instead.

          No we feast on their money while they get to serve it up voluntarily to stay clear of the guillotine.

          But only as much as they can survive.

            Well no. Only 90% of them. And barely.

            only the bad people are at the top so people see that and only the bad people decide to pursue that career path

            (i’m just using ‘bad people’ as a simplification)

      They’ll do something about it alright, like pushing for further militarization of the police, increased government latitude to spy on civilians, and restrictions of what kinds of weapons we’re permitted to own.

        Yeah this is just the precursor to cyberpunk (both the genre and the franchise) where corporate CEOs move with militarized armed escorts and have free reign to control areas and traffic where they see fit

          Which will really drive hatred and show the wage slaves exactly who owns their country. Could backfire spectacularly.
