    60,000 Americans die every year because of the insurance industry, but how many oligarchs were brought to justice? How many oligarchs were arrested for raping children on Epstein’s island? How many oligarchs were arrested for funding Israel’s genocide of Gaza? How many oligarchs were arrested for the massive tax evasion revealed from the Panama papers???

    Justice that only punches down is not justice. If our system will not hold the wealthy accountable for their crimes against humanity then our system is utterly rotten

      Everything you said is true, but it doesn’t really contradict my point.

      The current system is terrible, but it’s better than having a jury of laypeople make up the law based on the vibe of the case.

      I look forward to hearing your suggestions for a better judicial system.
