Any books/authors that REFUTE retributive justice?

>if you steal from someone, they get to steal an equal amount from you
>if you break someone's bones, they get to break yours
>if you rape someone, you are forced to be raped
>if you kill someone, their family kills you

It makes perfect sense. Has anyone refuted this, ever? Christcucks need not apply.

You have some kind of reddit brainworm in your head that prevents you from seeing philosophy as anything more than Top 10 Anime Battles of galaxy-brain Yakub niggers dunking on each other
I suggest you read nothing but very old classic fiction books for the next year and stop rotting yourself from the inside with the internet

>Retributive justice is... LE BAD
Do you have any other moronic non-argunents? Retributive justice is by definition fair and was practiced for thousands of years before Judeo-Christian morality polluted western thought. You're probably fine with someone raping your sister and being out of prison after a year on parole.

It's a primitive idea that doesn't work in the real world in any sense. If a rich man burns down a poor man's house, does the poor man get to burn down the rich man's house when the value isn't the same? What if the rich man can buy a new one any time he wants but the poor man spent his whole life building his own? What about damage from accidents where harm was never intended?

It is too easy for people to do harm. Those with nothing in this system are more shielded from harm then those who creates more and inflict less. If an old, poor, evil man cripples a young boy and is in turn punished by being crippled; he will just laugh to his grave as his life is not worth the life that he ruined.

I'm not sure you're correct, for example in Hammurabi's code breaking in and entering a home is punishable by hanging - not, as you suggest - breaking in and entering means you get to break into his house.
Maybe you should have researched this yourself?

this, the real failure though is in the inverse.
If I have 100 dollars and I steal 1000 dollars from a millionaire, what does he get? 1 dollar of my net worth, does he get his 1000 dollars back and 1 cent of my original 100 dollars?
Suppose I've already wasted the 1000 dollars I stole on cocaine, how does the millionaire get his dues back?
It's simply not practical in both relativistic and absolute terms
