Why does everyone jump to murder?

"what did you do on purge night?"

"I took everything from the local Walmart and now drive a fararri on weekends and a Maserati on week days."

I would be surprised if all major companies didn't have ex military security for that night, probably could even pay employees less to extend purge night protections to them and their families in the process. Though that wouldn't be without risks.

No matter the situation, if capitalism exists, corporations and Uber rich win, no matter what the movies show.

For me I'd probably prep for mad max/death race style racing on purge night, I'd love it so much.
