So, let me see if I have your position right: because some people will abuse a system that will improve things for many more people, we should not implement said system? Is that right? I think it is telling that you would rather not have one "type" of person benefit unjustly in the face of all of society benefiting greatly. Says more about your feelings about "types" of people than your willingness to participate in the heterogeneous society of modern civilization.
Remember, the perfect is the enemy of the good.
- notdrunkatall 13y agoYou have my position wrong. You people suck at this.
- rXoX 13y agoNo, I believe they have your position right, insofar as it's deeply flawed. Please go enjoy any one of several thousand books at your local library.
- splitrocket 13y agoHow do I have your position wrong? Please enlighten me. Telling me I suck at "this" is hardly informative or constructive. You indicated how a) this was a special case and that other types of people wouldn't behave similarly and that b) because other types of people wouldn't behave similarly this type of social policy shouldn't be enacted. Yes? What did I miss? Additionally, it is telling that you consider me to be plural. As if I am speaking on behalf of some sort of group that is "other" to you. Methinks, perhaps, you've caught the identity politics meme. You and I, we are not on separate teams, in different groups, or of a different type.
- notdrunkatall 13y agoYou still got it wrong, probably because you are a fucking twat.
