Did I suggest that blackmailing was an appropriate methodolgy? I was responding to the notion that so called rich people prefer paying off someone with affordable cash as opposed to facing the consequencxes of their actions.
I do not buy the argument that blackmail is simply contolled gossip. It is extortion.
My apologies. I was scoffing at the idea that oh, the market will fix it some other way and we’ll have poor man’s blackmail and rich man’s blackmail like we have beat up Chevys and brand new BMWs. There is no way to gold plate the turd, and we agree.
