I know we are passed the “lives have value” argument already.
But what happen’s when a country goes to war. I’m probably the least knowledgeable in this area, but you have a country with young, strong trained men. Ready to fight for their country. Is it assumed they will go to war and survive? They are literally sacrificial lambs. Individually they have great value, but their worth is over powered by the value of everyone in their country. In an ideal world, no one would die. We are literally in a war against a virus.
I totally respect your opinion Skinny, and it’s amazing to see how different people’s perspective is. You stated it is downright evil to think like that.. as this is over some people’s money. Yes, money is involved. But it’s bigger then that. It’s jobs and food on the table for EVERYONE. I’m no professor in economics, but there is a line and it’s not “shut everything down and let this pass” as the repercussions are far greater then the good.
My opinions may be overly simplistic, but I’m a simple person.
