re: #199 darthstar

Wait…they actually penalize their billionaires when they fuck up? Hate to say it, and obviously execution is a little over the top, but Iran does have something there.

Um, maybe not. The Iranian mullahs, military and politicians all run their own private business emprires. Kind of like the KGB does in Russia, they use their government power to steal what they can and crush competing factions. Iran’s criminal justice system and corrupt financial system is not a progressive ideal model.
