You cut off a few more heads, and they'll start to be a little more cautious with their shitty actions.

Meaning they will use healthcare dollars to hire more security.

Of course they'll also have to increase their margins to account for that.

Wishful thinking. They will double down on their shitty actions while surrounded by more security than a monarch.

I guess the logical progression is to go after the most accessible level...meaning eventually the office workers would probably be a target, which isn't great.

That, or people go after, like, their extended families instead...which isn't exactly great either...

Maybe flooding a country with firearms and putting them into its constitution isn't such a good idea

Worst case there is they have to pay for it and more money goes to working people. If they're in a serious threat of danger, I'm sure security costs increase too.

There is a limit to how much that kind of security can help.
