The cost of mass murdering

I just created a new column–Tiny Tidbit, so that I can post some additional stuffs here.

The stuffs you see in this column will not be qualified as main post. It is for me to add additional comments on provious posts, respond to readers’ comments and add opinions on current issues and other stuffs. You know, those tiny juicy stuffs….

I was chatting with ZhaoMing while I was writing the article “Human is the master of all organisms in the world, right? Are you sure?”

I jokingly told him that I gave the reader some tips to carry out mass murdering, without telling him that it is through decreasing the crop production.

He thought I was suggesting a large scale massacre. Haha…. good guess indeed. I told him that mass killing (massacre)  is highly uneconomical.

To perform such mass murdering, you need to employ killers, buy or make weapons and prepare transportation, which will cost a lot of money, time and energy. The efficiency of such murdering is very low, since the victims will try to run for their lives. There is also a risk of facing an uprising or resistance, probably from some super heroes. This is just like the scene from the Chinese movie Seven Sword, directed by Tsu Hak.

Mass massacre costs so much that it is not worth doing so. Altering the policy to cause femine, like what Lenin did, is much economical and efficient. I hope no one will do it, especially to my beloved countrymen.
