Not just better-informed people but anyone with even a minute sense of logic will laugh at your claim that voting for a CEO is the same as shooting a CEO.
Those people rather voted for Trump because they were misinformed that voting for anyone who will regulate billionaires is a communist.
Thus the most anti-government people are billionaires and CEOs. The government exists to protect people from billionaires.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
