Zino - get on the voice. Too many points you’ve raised and now none can be dealt with 1-1, like we were when this conversation started.
What does thermodinamics have to do with epistemology?
Everything
I was off to kitchen
Every thought has a metabolic process associated with it.
But the thought in itself is not the sum total of metabolical processes
Very good Gus i agree ❤️
Is there anyone who wants absolute power for parents to choose the manner in which their children are educated and even don't send them to school at all ?
We talk about Morality or?

I believe it's morally justifiable for a child to sue his parent, after his parent refused to enroll him in school for the legal minimum number of years.
Otherwise, if you just let parents withdraw their children from school without penalty or incentive, they would misuse this law and create a generation of less productive youngsters lacking education.
And the collective well-being should prevale on the long term

*Or the multiple personalities individual
Americans appear to be too individualistic to realize that the success of a society rezides in coherent collectivist behaviour, properly oriented to national goals.
The so-called "successful individuals" like entrepreneurs, doctors, lawyers, engineers produce and grow their wealth within and FOR society, not on Mars.
If the Government doesn't oblige the Megarich to comply with the rules and pay taxes, he will squander his profits on luxury and society won't profit at all. This is wy is moral for him to pay taxes.
And it's a bad idea to have rich people in policymaking. Their will act in self interest, while professional politicians are accountable to their electors.
Every Authoritarian regime in the world has been lead by Megarich. While the successful ones like Ireland and Scandinavia have always been lead by professional community-based accountable politicians
Sorry Zino - caught up in some work
My school is consuming my life, wish I could talk more

@Zurich04 we are gonna be having town halls on the weekends so maybe you can join for a bit. :)
Awesome, I’ll plan on it

@Yussuki ₪ no, it has been led by taxes
Ok..but taxes need to be thought of and imposed by some Entity to serve a goal, right? 😛
here’s a question: how do you overcome moral relativistic counterarguments?
@Yussuki ₪ high taxes and social reforms are hardly an innovation
By arguing that objectivity doest not exist, since it is a mater of frame of reference ? is it ok ?
the point is the people pay for those programs...if no one pays those high taxes then those programs fail
> By arguing that objectivity doest not exist, since it is a mater of frame of reference ? is it ok ?
@Yussuki ₪ I meant the opposite lol
Yes I agree 🥳
like someone saying well that is what YOU think
Oh I believe that is actually easier to debunk 😄
I went on a date (kinda) and we talked about Warren Buffet
and how he hardly spends his billions
I said if I were in his position I would dedicate my time left to doing good
