    Remember - they didn’t throw Martin Skhreli into rich-guy’s prison because he caused thousands of people to die by raising the prices on lifesaving medicines out of reach of poor folk… no, no, no, they threw him into rich guy’s prison because he embezzled some of his fellow rich parasites’ money.

          Boxing gloves protect your hands and allow you to hit harder. Doubly so if you’re holding a roll of quarters in each palm
