    In its very perverted logic, this assassination is good for capitalism. Every CEO can ask for a raise now.

          It’s already been tried with social democracies. They cannot last because capitalism is inherently rapacious by nature and tends to maximize the extraction of surplus value in the long run.

                  Sorry, just saw this. The answer is at the expense of the global south. Those social democracies still have companies that profit off of the labor and resources of the global south.

                    Definitely. Is there anywhere that doesn’t profit off the labor and resources of the global south though? Even in the global south? The few social democracies that exist, if you can even call them that, benefit in this way but also by taxing the rich and the corporations for the benefit of all their citizens.

              You mean the same countries that have been having issues with managing the growing number of immigrants and the strain they put on the welfare system?

          Capitalism tries to nuke itself that’s why it’s often heavily regulated. It’s only positive is that it allows for rapid production. Which is also it’s greatest drawback.

      Let’s increase each one’s pay by exactly three aerodynamic chunks of lead, to be deposited directly into their brainpans at supersonic speeds.
