Ripple-Effect Justice: A Manifesto for Infinite Liability

Ripple-Effect Justice: A Manifesto for Infinite Liability challenges everything we think we know about causation, responsibility, and fairness in modern society. In this bold and provocative manifesto, Richard Sweeney exposes the hidden moral and economic costs of daily recklessness—particularly behind the wheel—and proposes a revolutionary legal framework in which the full ripple effects of every action are tracked, measured, and compensated. From missed surgeries and lost jobs to financial ruin and broken families, this book argues that downstream harm is not too remote to matter—it is too real to ignore. Leveraging modern telemetry, blockchain technology, smart contracts, and actuarial science, Sweeney lays out a detailed plan to replace archaic tort doctrines with a system of real-time, data-driven justice. This is not just a policy proposal—it’s a cultural reckoning. If you’ve ever sat in traffic and wondered why nobody pays for the stolen time of thousands, this book is your answer. Ripple-Effect Justice is a manifesto for those who believe that accountability should be as far-reaching as the damage caused.
