"Moral Consistency"?What the fuck do "morals" have to do with this?
I'm not "outraged" about this because giving free office space in an empty building doesn't cost the taxpayers nearly a trillion dollars. "Morals" don't come into play here.
This is too small for me to care about. It's nothing, and affects NO ONE.
Killing 1 person is morally as bad as killing 100, right? Moral consistency. I didn't expect you to grasp that concept.
That's fucking hilarious.
And, no. Killing 100 people is significantly worse than killing one person.
If you don't believe me, try it. See how many years in prison you get for each.
Like who?It affects plenty of people. The fact that you dont grasp that also does not shock me.
"Morally" is a completely meaningless term. So, no, I'm not "morally" pissed about the bailouts, I'm pissed about the bailouts because the government wrote a trillion dollar check of taxpayer money to Wall Street.So you morally are not pissed about the bailouts I'd assume? What about if we gave 100 office buildings, in each of America's 50 biggest cities? 5000 office buildings to OWS protestors? Would that piss you off? Would you care?
And I'm not going to respond to nonsense hypotheticals. Would you be "outraged" if Michelle Bachmann pulled off her mask during a press conference to reveal herself to be an alien?
I'm talking morality, not scale. 100 is worse in scale, not in morality. Courts charge people 1st on the basis of morality, that being that an act is criminal. They sentence them based on scale. Again, not shocked you dont get this.
Who does it affect? It's gonna affect taxpayers of LA for one. You think it'll stop with 1 building and some land? Of course not. And, it emboldened the hordes of occupiers in other cities. They smell blood now. LA caved. What ELSE can they get out of their whining?
The fact that you said "morally" is a completely meaningless term should end this debate, as you have no moral core. So, you can't hold such a high brow debate. But, against my own judgement, I'll keep it up. You say you ARE pissed about the bailouts, but not the LA gift? Well, how much money did LA citizens pay for that 10,000 sq/f building and farmland? THAT check is now gone, as OWS is getting both for free. Agains, "something for nothing". Morally, its the same as giving Wall Street a bailout. In scale, its not. In principle and morality, they are the same. It's kinda like if you said you are pissed about the guy who killed 100 people, but "dont care" about the guy who killed 1. Scale vs morality.
Dont worry. I dont expect much in respone. My expectations are quite low for you.
And a Bachman Alien would be freaking awesome.
