fuck yes
fuck the authoritan and puritanical jedi

go sith!
It has nothing to do with the philosophy, and everything to do with the fact that while I'm in line at the DMV, I can just go "lady, you're done, you don't need to keep talking to the dude," and she'd just leave.
I would be using that every goddamn day, for inane, selfish bullshit; there's just no way I could resist the temptation.
Experiment number one: Can I do this over the phone?

Re: Madoff Suicide. I don't like any suicides, unless it's a case of someone with a terminal disease who is suffering, and even in that case I still don't like it, but I see the point of it. Suicide is terrible and sad, be they a serial killer or a con man or a 90 year old grandma dying of cancer.
And either of those deserve your gloating over him widowing his wife and leaving his kids orphans. Yep, big man, happy about a suicide.
If he were a child molester or serial killer, no one would think twice about him deserving this, even if he had a wife and kids.
But because his crimes are "merely" financial, all of a sudden he's a fucking saint. It's a bullshit standard, that's the reverse of what it actually should be.
1. I would
2. His crimes are merely financial
no-one's saying he's a saint
we're just not laughing at his suicide
there is a middle ground here
At least three people committed suicide because of their losses to the Madoff ponzi scheme.
And financial crimes are far, far worse than most other crimes, because they're not crimes of necessity; he could have made a living doing just about anything he wanted to. He had the connections, he had the education; what he chose to do was participate in his father's ponzi scheme for tens of millions of dollars. That's not "I need to eat" money, that's "I need to own three jet planes and a dozen yachts" money.

You are really not thinking big enough.
I'd use it to mold the world and society into my liking.
We would all live incredibly efficient and productive lives and crime would be non-existent.
Except artistically awesome crimes like graffiti and robbing banks with ultra-style. They may stay.

I laugh when rich criminals kill themselves because their crimes catch up to them.
I don't laugh when a rich dude kills himself because he lost everything he owns and feels responsible for his friends and family losing money that they entrusted to him. That's a fucking tragedy.
If we're going to have a death penalty, Mark Madoff is exactly the type of criminal it should be used on.

So Mark Madoff was clueless and incompetent if he didn't realize the huge rate of return on his money meant something was up, but all the people who invested and got near 100% ROR on their money were just innocent pawns? Come on than, you can't have it both ways.

but it would just end up with me living in a floating castle while the world tears itself apart below
My primary goals to begin with would be 1) finding a source of limitless energy. All moneys would be poured into this.
..well, all military moneys cause education and healthcare are important whereas military is not.
and 2) creating a self-sustaining system of government that does not actually require constant surveillance to continue functioning in a beneficial way.
Then I would go live in my floating castle of awesome and come down every couple of hundred of years to make sure things haven't gone to shit - if they have then begin again from scratch.
i'm not even arguing that white collar crime shouldn't be regarded as serious crime, or qualify an offender from being called an evil asshole
but i don't think even evil assholes- whether we consider them such because of rape or murder or financial theft- should have their suicide gloated over
If I had Jedi mind powers, I would abuse them so bad. Mind control is too awesome to resist. I'd start with the mundane, like getting free shit at the grocery store or speeding up lines. From there I'd move on to creating decadent pleasure galas. By the end, I'd have human furniture and human puppet shows ranging from the quaint to the violent to the disturbingly erotic. I'd make powerful people step in front of cars and I'd make parents drown their children, just because life would become so meaningless to me and the next vile amusement would be the only thing left to live for.

So, there is this fancy dress party, and the theme is that everybody has to come dressed as an emotion. The host answers the door and standing there are two guys, stark naked but for the fact that one has his genitals in a bowl of custard, and the other has his cock jammed into a pear. She asks "What the hell are you supposed to be?"
"I'm fucking disgusted, and he's come in despair".
