    This is how it’s done. Take notes America. You’re watching a country hold the wealthy accountable.

      This is how it’s done.

      I think the death penalty is a bad policy overall and particularly bad in a court system that’s largely a rubber stamp for the prosecutor.

      At the same time, it is hard to pull together sympathy for a cartel so casual in their cruelty and brutal in their oppression.

      I would like to believe there’s a world in which all these people get the Jack Ma treatment, with varying lengths of time doing rice farming to give them all a taste of humility, and then they come back to society older and wiser and more peaceful. It’s a shame we don’t live in that place.
