One man harming thousands. Sounds like a crime that would be punishable by death in olden times.

There was an incident in South Korea some years ago where a greedy developer built an apartment building with substandard concrete; the building later collapsed and killed a few hundred people. The guy was tried and convicted and as he was being frog-marched to his sentencing hearing, friends and relatives of the victims were coming out of the crowd and beating him while his escorts just looked away.

It's really enjoyable to imagine that happening here in the US, but then it's enjoyable to imagine winning the lottery, too.
