So if a billionaire is stripped of and isolated from their resources, and sent to be re-educated, they will still lead to more death and misery? There is no possible path to becoming a functioning member of society?

Any action that results in taking a life is a tragedy. That it is necessary for people to be killed during a war in order to prevent the slaughter of innocent people is ludicrously stupid in an age where there are enough resources to support the world's population. Executions during an ongoing revolution fall into a gray area that may qualify as self defense, as letting the person live may result in the deaths of more people.

Well Che was leading an armed revolution. This is a trial in an established state.

My personal belief is that it is always bad.

I thought there was a little more pushback on the death penalty. I don't doubt that people want to see the end of billionaires.

I am a little (emphasis on little) surprised how many people on here and on the X seem ok with this.
