These people need their knees broken man. If there’s no brutal, satisfying, divine punishment for demons in Louisiana of all places, then how can god exist
Profits will be privatised, losses will be socialised, no exceptions.
I can't wait to see the utility company being sued into the ground for attempting to extract money from its customers who didn't use their service.
What's next, MacDonald's going after health food stores?
Shell going after electric vehicle owners?
- I can't tell if you're joking or not, but those companies very much do go after people who use alternative products.
  
  And what is their success rate?
- When was the last time a large company was “sued to the ground” for wronging its customers or society? Heavily fined? Sure. Purdue went bankrupt, yet none of the family members are charged. They’ll just pop up another company or pass on the wealth to the next generation, and it’ll be another multi decade before that iteration is ‘sued to the ground.’ Like medicine, you should treat the symptoms, but you also need to prevent the symptoms from happening or else it’ll keep returning.
  Not to mention, the companies are lobbying for it to be a LAW. If it gets passed and not vetoed, it means no one will be taking your lawsuit seriously.
- How about internet services suing companies that doesnt advertise?

- Yes, some more monopolised segments of businesses are dreaming about this for years. And doing, like the fucking Monsanto or copyright mafias.
Most efficient system btw
