Oil companies killing animals and ocean life tho they aren't human, they are still killing life for profit and they get away with it. Other companies in Big Pharma are also responsible for this with humans, especially when it comes to stuff like insulin for the diabetic. It's literally overpriced just so they can make money.

Also, people kill each other while being greedy over things like money all the time. I mean, anywhere you look in America, you're gonna find greed, and often, it's within these bigger corporations that cause the issue. Hence why I think them being greedy is dangerous because it comes at the expanse of the average person.

Also you can look this up, it's very common for people to kill each other over shit lol

it happens so often it's something to expect eh... high fructose corn syrup creating obesity, nicotine causing cancer ... the evil is endless, it's a human nature that wont go away. ...What can we do ? outlaw making profit ? ... no, that's a nonsense. We expect the profit motive to run rampant, it's negligent or incompetent governance that's the underlying systemic problem. What we need are tools that can help us organize and manage resources fairly. What kind of tools will be able to resolve the economic complexities of society? ...
