If you could sue every one who hurt you and them the same to you would you make a profit?

I would be so very dirty, rotten, filthy, stinking rich.

I would likely profit. Not as much as the lawyers though…..

No because everyone loses in the end.
Besides your assumming that the offender is emotionally mature enought to realize the pain that they caused, if they don’t evryone including them lose.

Interesting way of framing the question.

Everyone has been the victim of some injustice. At least, everyone believes so in their own experience, to judge from what I hear people say.

I can’t imagine how I’d put numbers to it, myself, but I do think a couple of huge, enormous hits that I took would cancel out a lot of mistakes and misdeeds I committed, if we just went by scores.

The thing is, though, the people I hurt were not the people who hurt me, so there really is no profit for anyone, and no redemption in weighing them against each other. Instead, they all add onto a collective burden that falls on our species as a whole.

Two wrongs are twice as many as one; they don’t net out to zero.
