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.
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.

Just 3 IMO, because 1 is only an anomaly, 2 is just coincidence.
But 3 is a pattern, then behavior will adjust.
Isn’t that just what we say when we imprison people?
