    They’ve bought the laws that made it much more so over the past few decades. The laws are where we take it back, and then create laws with no tolerance that prevent aggressive behaviors from having any place in society outside of maybe certain types of military & sports, but even those will need strong controls in place.

      The laws have protected them and their wealth since day one. America was founded to protect its rich landed nobility voters, anything since is a hack on top.

      You cannot control them, history shows this time and time again, it is better to eliminate their means of power in the first place.

        You’re talking about completely eliminating the existing structure of the country. Good luck getting an even vaguely significant proportion of the population to go along with that. People are too afraid of what they don’t know or understand.

      The mechanism of law fundamentally favors the powerful, the mechanism if violence to lubricate coordination and smoother roughness is fundamentally antidemocratic, and fundamentally wielded against the most marginal. Both will always produce reinforce and snowball stratification. The medium kind of is the message here.
