Not an american but i would think that not many rich people actually get murdered, unfortunately.

Would you say that out loud around other people?

If they don't want to get eaten they could just donate their excess wealth to the poor.

Fuck yes. Kill the rich.

What piece of shit wouldn't?

Why murder people when you can just take their ahit and leave then destitute?

I'm rich, what you gonna do to me, peasant?

Because we're at war?

If we had the means to remove all their wealth and stop them from ever amassing any again sure there's no need for the death penalty at that point. But we're not there, we're in the frontlines of a class war where it's us vs them.

If you're really rich (I doubt it) you could give up your excess wealth and live a comfortable life with what you have remaining.

You're a terminally online, no wonder you're so bitter. With that much free time you must have no job and live solely on government handouts.

Thanks for the downvotes!

1000 comments a month is pretty dire. Touch grass, peon.
