    No… killing CEOs has not produced effective social change at any point. The thing about it is that they’re just going to appoint someone else. It literally makes no difference for the system, they have plenty of volunteers for the job. There won’t be any change in business, they’ll just hire a security detail.

      This is exactly it - we are taught words work, but in reality that is just so that violence can be condemned when it happens to important people.

      And no, people eventually stop working for a monarchy that goes through one king per year.

        How is the CEO of United Healthcare a king? If it was Trump I would understand but this literally changes nothing.
