Alternatively we can just take their stuff and throw them in jail. After all the system was designed for them to become what they are. Good enough for me.

You forgot the part where we also take their companies, real estate, stock, private jets and yachts.

Crassus is a model we wish all billionaires aspire to.

Waste of perfectly good lead. The same outcome could be achieved with human excrement.

Typical lack of logic from billionaire haters. You get shit too hot, you release horrible gassed and the cleanup would be terribly tedious.

You need to submerge them in boiling piss.

Guys, guys, concrete is adequate.

I like the concrete, could do it on a big tanker ship and then just dump it in the ocean when its hard. Put it next to the titanic and titan wrecks.

we can reuse the lead afterwards

Doctors should put billionaires into involuntary commitment in psych wards.

that level of greed is a serious immediate danger to everyone.

Uh, I have some notes. First, lead is toxic-can it be a giant blender instead?

Okay, that was my only note, actually.

They are called macerators, and yes that would work amazingly.

a death game movie where all the victims are billionaires would be amazing

I'd tune in.

They wouldn't. If people would want to see it they could vote for a party that taxes the billionaires. Schools, hospitals and housing could be built right now.
