50. Quite the opposite. You are the one postulating that killing off populations
using economic means is okay. I am saying that actions by individuals have consequences, a very different thing.

You're right, there is nothing to discuss so long as you believe that companies can do no wrong, managers held to no account, that profits are more important than people, and that "nice" people don't think otherwise, and especially don't bring up embarrassing examples of company mis-, mal-, or non-feasance which in death or lower quality of life for people (which is really just a slower death).

I DO complain about humans being sent to die for a bunch of comfy business folks and politicians to make money. I've said often that if any military action is going to be justified, that 435 Congressfolk, 100 Senators, and 1 President need to be in the front line. THEN I can accept that it's important.

It's ironic that you can't see that you are the one putting no value on life, in that you think companies should be able to blight and end lives without consequence.
