How about the billionaires? Any rules for them?
lol, no.
If the billionaires want the Chinese model for us, it's only fair they fall under that same model.
You know what? Seeing as how we're getting it anyway whether we like it or not, I think I'd voluntarily take the surveillance state and censorship if it comes with rich people getting absolutely stomped by the government when they get out of line.
Maybe we can adopt the Vietnamese model where that billionaire either pays back $9 billion of embezzled funds or gets executed.
If we can't have a real democracy with real freedom I at least want blood of vengeance to bathe in from time to time.
Mr. Ed Snowden would like a word.
Fed into woodchippers like they deserve.
