@rzbandz @StonyUB I don’t think you need a phone. You can make plans to hang out with friends without it. #sp22

@Crab__Mentality @MFleik @abaker093 @DavidOo999 @kierstenmojica @No39544540 Ethics is the social principle. Morality is our own principle. #sp22

[James @James20538875]

@Crab__Mentality @GabiEwbank @No39544540 I think there needs to be a price ceiling. This would prevent people from gouging on a necessity #sp22

[James @James20538875]

@No39544540 I think this is dangerous thinking. This is why a lot of poorer people don’t work hard. They think there is no way out. People can definitely make it out of poverty by living under their means and investing properly #sp22

@ashacharles14 I don’t think that’s a good baseline. Saying Asians are good at math isn’t harmful, but I’m not sure that’s an ok stereotype #sp22

[James @James20538875]

What is the line where “stereotyping” becomes a problem. There are differences in cultures, is it always wrong to assume them though? #sp22

[James @James20538875]

@DavidOo999 I think there is some responsibility to get educated and motivated, but there’s is some responsibility as a society to make it possible #sp22

@rzbandz @NicoleB2017 @StonyUB I’ve been wanting to get Tracphone instead. However, a smartphone is so intertwined into my life that I can’t justify it #sp22

[James @James20538875]

@StonyUB This was me haha. What really caught my attention was when Professor mentioned slave owners would have said that they can’t be free cause it would hurt the economy. I think it is our responsibility to fix this inequality #sp22

[James @James20538875]

@hkmilktealover @sp22person @Tweets2Jared I think this is the problem with the nation. Liberals believe it is because of systematic oppression, conservatives believe it is caused by poor monetary habits. People refuse to believe that both could be happening #sp22

[James @James20538875]

@No39544540 I neither agree nor disagree with this statement, what about the landlord that takes a risk building a tower which adds a large sum of supply to the market and lowers the price of living #sp22

[James @James20538875]

@SHSP99 @DavidOo999 That’s a good point. In class I mentioned I buy my phone second hand because I’m against Apple. Yet I’m against the unethical meat industry, yet I still partake in it #sp22

[James @James20538875]

People consider monkeys to be in their Stone Age right now. What happens in 1000 years if they make a modern society, are they entitled to equality of resources as humans? At what point is equality no longer possible? #sp22

@klaralalo @kierstenmojica @MatthewKurtP @sp22_jenn136 @StonyUB I understand the argument that it’s a privilege, but at the same time I think there is a lot of choice for Americans at least. Some people choose to go home and watch Netflix instead of following their passion #sp22

[James @James20538875]

@magginoodles16 @kierstenmojica @SHSP99 I think the wastefulness is more unethical, you chose to spend your money on stuff you ain’t use instead of trying to help someone else. Seems super selfish to me #sp22

[James @James20538875]

@n_bratsis @DavidOo999 There are probably people that can afford to spend more but choose not too #sp22

[James @James20538875]

@No39544540 We willingly choose use and purchase their products, so I’d argue we did willingly give rich people all of this money. #sp22

[James @James20538875]

Saying it is rich peoples responsibility to help poor people is like saying it’s the casino’s responsibility to ensure people don’t gamble. Maybe it is their responsibility l, but it seems like a big claim #sp22

[James @James20538875]

@haydanbloomberg Except they would not out of fear of an even worse penalty #sp22

[James @James20538875]

In class we talked about the “I cut, you choose” scenario.
Would a system like this work in criminal cases. You pick your own punishment but if it’s deemed to relaxed than the judge determines the sentence #sp22
