Lives can be replaced. That's what women are for.

But what about CEO bonuses, huh? What about a lost quarter bonus because the company didn't earn enough? That quarter passed and the poor CEO skipped their bonus! That's simply evil!

Reminds me how a couple months ago SCOTUS decided that federal government paying states for SNAP was irreparable harm, and people dying from hunger wasn't. It shows the logic underlying both fascism and capitalism quite clearly.
