The article focuses on a very narrow point, but it does offer an insight on the debate of free will. However, it does not quite tackle the crux of the matter. If the choice we make is determine by influences beyond my control, as much as th

What is wrong with Justice must be served idea? Although your suggestion might work in criminal law, in contract law it is not so much as a question of punishment as it is a question of putting a right wrong, so too in much civil law. So, t

Well, if Mr Gates charges me 500 rather than 400 then well his gain is my loss. So too if he pays me 11k rather than 12k, keeping that extra k as profit for himself, his gain is my loss.

Ohh I am sorry I thought you were emphasising the data the charts were measuring rather than the actual types of chart themselves! If you only mean that we should use only line, bar or pie charts, then I would say that scatter graphs at tim

You watch Fox News? Wow, the first person I have read admit that! I thought no one watches Fox News but the dumb.

You are missing a great and fundamental point. You see Bill Gates was one guy. Clever perhaps, very clever maybe indeed, lucky also let us say for the sake of the argument. But he is only one guy! He has the wealth of millions of people. Ho

Well you have five points taking a very unconventional stance, thus, I do not think your argument is ridiculous at all. I would be more interested in the solution however, taking into account the practicalities. I mean, if the government ha

Yes, that might be what it means, but in all fairness, those same people decide if you go to jail for killing someone or not. There is nothing technically to prevent the legislature from legalising murder. Or torture as effectively they did

I think I was being fairly serious. Do you have any reason to think that the part you quoted was a parody?

We, the People! We decide who to lock up, so why not put a limit on how much wealth one can accumulate, say something like no more than 1000% of the average wage, all other income taxed at 100%, or 90% or 80%. They only gain this income by

There is the defence of necessity. For example is someone threatens to kill you unless you do something, then you wont be punished for that something you did.

No he didn't. The community does not owe him an explanation for what they like and dislike. Also, reading this same question in many threads becomes a bit annoying. This article and any other article is on here because someone submitted it

The only problem is that you ignore the nature of men and his history. Nation states are a relatively new thing. People used to live in city states, principataes, and that sort of thing, but then you get Persia for example who wants more an

Why does this comment keep being downvoted? I think he is making a fine point, would you rather prisoners sit around do nothing all day, or are given some work to do which improves them and improves the country in a way paying back their du

Lying can be an offence in many cases. I am not sure about criminal, but defamation for example is basically lying about another person, so too lying to someone about what you are selling, etc. but yeah you do make a good point.

I find it hard to believe that quoted statement. Although I am not an American, I think the legal system of America is very much based on the British system, thus there are very many similarities. I think judges are very resistant to anythi

I do not think most people are in favour of legalizing weed if by most people you mean the general population and not the teenagers.

Wow, an entire opinion piece, making countless of conclusions, offering countless of speculations, basing it all on some study, the citation of which of course is not given. It would have not been hard, name and date would have sufficed per

So about 1.5 billion have access to the internet, assuming that the 500 million users are unique users, then 1/3 of the internet population is on Facebook. That's the end of the beginning of globalisation for you, now all we have to do is c
