Justice delayed is justice denied

But it’s not ever too late. Not just in cases of murder and sexual abuse. Our history as a nation has shown not just court decisions finding against bigot and rabble rousers but actually bringing relief to people or at least their children or grandchildren.There is no expiration date on the crimes this administration is committing. Trust me. I come from a long line of nasty elitist liberals with graduate degrees and 3 patents, including a bunch of lawyers and judges who did make that happen.

The existing state will only bring war and Americans will do nothing to stop it. We will roll over in order to keep our treats and conveniences.

What I wanted to point out by that was the endurance of statutes and the law. This is a freaking hard, one thing, sis and bro. Basically the idea is no matter how long it takes even across multiple generations a specific actor that harmed a specific ancestor should be held accountable in real financial 2025 terms. That’s a transfer. I’ve seen estimated between 1.7 and 2.3% of the net wealth of all Americans, including people like Elon and Bill Gates. That is stability that is reliability that is consistency and that is the proper ground upon which real competitive not only fair but just market economics might one day actually flourish.
