      Humans are driven based on vice and self-interest, or as Baudrillard calls it, the principle of evil. Capitalism has been a global phenomenon because of it, and laws should be in place to prevent the excesses, like billionaires and dark triad personalities from reaching leadership positions. That doesn’t mean people are inherently violent, but it can lead to violence, and does.
