I've heard it as, "Nothing will materially change until the plutocrats fear for their lives."
They killed a health insurance CEO. Nothing materially changed. They tried to kill Trump several times. Nothing materially changed.
It changed something - approval rates for a while were much higher. After they found out that it was a lone incident, it went back to the business as usual.
So every part of it is true. It works, and you must not stop until it's worked out in its entirety.
Not true. In the wake of the health care CEO's execution, approvals not only increased in his company, but other health care companies as well. Thousands of people were helped who would have been cheated otherwise.
They've gone back to their old ways, which only proves that a CEO needs to be executed at random every 6 months or so, until they've made proper behavior a positive habit.
So… indeed true.
They've never given anything back without being forced to. Never.
Excuse my excessiveness, as I was feeling a bit florid last night.
I have to say, you have a very robust vocabulary.
