Left untreated, chronic affluenza can lead to serious social impairment, pedophilia, cannibalism, and a severe lack of consequences.

There are degrees of sickness, right? An asshole business owner who feels entitled to run red lights and speed because they’re white and have a nice car and know the police chief’s son probably doesn’t need life imprisonment or execution.
I mean, I wouldn’t really be too upset if they were, but it just seems wasteful.
On the other end, people in the Epstein files might need to be hospitalized for more than a single human lifetime.
Absolutely, 1000%. And the example you gave, 1000% with you on the possibility of rehabilitation there. Frankly, I think that 99.9999% of people can be rehabilitated in finite time. The other 0.0001% are literally the billionaires and their cronies. (And I believe that this is numerically in the ballpark, since the billionaires number about 3000 and there are about 8.2 billion humans on this planet, and the figure I gave is an overestimate to include their non-billionaire cronies [e.g., Jeffrey Epstein; I believe that he was, numerically, strictly not a billionaire when he died].)
Yeah that’s really who I’m talking about when I have my doubts about rehabilitation for a very small subset of people, and I believe that worldwide communism would make this subset asymptotically vanish (“asymptotically” to account for the presence of serial killers).
