This is the stuff I think about whenever people are murdered by cops for shoplifting or selling loose cigarettes. It’s 100% legal to steal if you’re doing it with a hospital via price gouging, or selling junk loans through a bank, a operating a casino.
It’s also what I think about whenever someone talks about atrocities in Syria or rocket attacks in Israel. Here in America we kill our people in the civilized way: via capitalism, and we think it magically makes us more moral.
This is why sovcits are such a prevalent thing in this country. Because so much of your life is based on contracts with the state or private orgs for various things.
Take hospitals. Yeah they gouge, because you sign a contract.
Speeding ticket? Contract.
Court order? Contract.
You’re partially right tho. It’s not illegal to sell people a shitty product for an exorbitant price when these ppl are desperate.
