The super-rich tend to invest most of their money with those companies that guarantee the highest return on that investment. I think that these are probably rapidly growing companies. This means that these are companies that are creating a lot of jobs.
To me, a sacrifice makes sense if there is not a better option. To me, not using punishment is a better option. I propose to improve the quality of education and to do as little business as possible with those who act unethically. I would send all physically violent individuals to heavily guarded rehabilitation centers. I would release them only if they become harmless enough.
