I would never take such extreme measures. But I WOULD like it if we could make mental competency a requirement for adults.
H. L. Mencken was always a bit on the sarcastic side....
@Lizard_of_Ahaz Ah, but not I, right?
@MsKathleen This quote of his was from his book "First Prejudices" printed in 1919 and with history being as prone to repeating itself because most people aren't interested in actual historical events is once again coming to pass. Bezos the Dragon is having a new yacht built that is so big it will need its own zip code while his employees are being cheated out of pay and benefits. Most of them need welfare to keep a roof over their heads and food on the table yet he spends more to prevent unions for forming that paying them a decent living wage would cost him. A little piracy might not be the worst that could happen in the world today if you ask me...
Personal opinion
@Lizard_of_Ahaz It is the slitting of throats that concerns me. I agree with you as regards Bezos. The best way to deal with him is to quit using Amazon.
@MsKathleen I haven't bought anything from them in 4 years.
