Avicennacriminalize owning billions and treat the desire to own billions as a mental disease
i dont disagree with the first part, but u know that having a mental disease isnt a wrong thing right? like good people can have mental issues? this isnt a mental disease, its desire to be evil. i dont like that socially mental disease can be 1:1 with being immoral or evil
MelmiWanting to own billions isn’t necessarily evil. I’d say it’s actually pretty common to want to be a billionaire in our society; the desire to gain wealth is core to capitalism. They may not understand the consequences of it or be able to conceptualize of the people they’d hurt.
Hypothetically, if we treated it as an illness (or rather a symptom) we could shift societal norms and rehabilitate people who express signs of trying to hoard wealth.
