America is one of the only countries I know, where being a criminal actually means failing upwards. I predict it but damn it’ll happen someday, a convicted serial murderer will have a position of power somewhere once they’re out on probation. It’s going to happen and America will make that happen.
Thinking of what happened the other day. Executives of evil corporations are surely serial murderers, so I argue it has already happened and has been happening for a long time.
The very existence of poverty is lethal, making billionaires guilty of manslaughter through inaction at the least, because they are not using their money to improve or eliminate poverty.
What I mean is, while I understand what you’re talking about, is the day we actually have someone convicted of a more direct murder charge get elected somewhere. We know some executives have skeletons in their closet, but until they’re convicted, everyone sees them as saints. Somehow.

I understood what you meant, and I still get you. Let’s do a bit of levity. Since you mentioned skeletons in the closet-
May I present to you, the new Cabinet Head for the Department of Health and Human Resources- Skeletor!

Always has been - if you’ve been big enough criminal.
