That's a pretty good counterargument. OK, you've changed my mind, let's not kill the poor.

- euccastro 15y agoActually, as a (just as absurd) heuristic I think the world would be much better off if we killed, say, the 1% richest people every year. We'd lose some people up there with genuine net contribution to mankind, but for the most part we'd get rid of thieves and thugs. The problem with mankind is not lack of good and brilliant folks, but excess of white collar thieves and thugs. Not that I would propose this seriously. Just seems to me less absurd than what you suggested, which is not saying much at all.
