    Although I’m very anti billionaire, I would put capitalism there.

    If suddenly all the billionaires magically disappear, the world will get morally lighter sure but in a decade you’ll have new ones.

      I just explained this to someone who claimed killing the UHC CEO was “self-defense” for all the people suffering from all the wrongs he was responsible for at UHC. As if CEOs aren’t easily replaceable and as if the new CEO would significantly change things.

      Yeah, the guy might have done it to get revenge, but if it was self-defense, it was the worst attempt at self-defense ever.
