[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Change the question. Why do you support CEOs killing people every day with their business decisions? Just because it is legal? How much suffering did wall street bankers impose in the country after 2008 that require us all to collectively bail them out? How much suffering do healthcare exec inflict in thousands of people per day? When the high and nightly inflict suffering they are never punished for their crimes. They are rewarded for it with taxpayer bailouts, higher stock prices, and bigger paychecks. You're asking the wrong question. Why do you support CEO malfeasance? [/quote] Sure ask thst question Fight for real change which will not happen just by killing a CEO. Only stupid people think that way. For large organizations, these guys are just as interchangeable. I'm sure there is an acting CEO who took over that guys work. But this is un-American. Everyone is entitled to a trial by a jury of their peers Maybe that doesn't matter anymore in this new America[/quote] So how do you suppose we change things then? American citizens cannot change the govt because citizens United has given unlimited buying and lobbying power to corporations and special interest groups to corrupt our government. The institutions that are supposed to regulate these businesses have also been captured. So please tell us all how we are supposed to change this corporate oppression when we can't democratically elect officials to change laws since they're all bought by corporations or are blocked from doing so because of citizens United. [/quote] You can’t murder people either to get your way. Back to the drawing board[/quote] Throughout history people have certainly used violence to overthrow the wealthy ruling class keeping them impoverished. Our country was build on escaping an oppressive monarchy. I don’t know why we think there isn’t a tipping point at which people will begin to return to violence. As a PP mentioned Citizens United was a gateway decision that gave limitless power to our corporate overlords and all the legal methods of trying to pass reform for the working and middle class are essentially nullified. It’s unrealistic to think there isn’t a rock bottom in which wealth inequality gets so bad that enough people revolt. I hope we don’t get to that point, and if it does it may not be within our lifetimes. But the growing wealth gap cannot keep accelerating at the same pace without a societal upheaval.[/quote] But now that people see it’s a poor little rich boy who went off the rails this “movement” loses its momentum.
