  10. No. Actually we need less ethics in this country. on RIAA Says Accused Students Are Settling · · Score: 1

    No. I think courses in ethics would be counter-productive. People with sound ethics
    would have put a stop to a lot of morally sound things in this country.

    I'm sure I'm losing you here but in a nutshell morals are what a society expects
    to be proper and expedient. Executing murderers is an example. Ethics in turn are uy
    believes what morals should be, in effect asking the question whether executing
    murderers is the right and proper thing to do.

    So let's not focus on the ethical issue here whether it is okay to bankrupt thousands of
    young adults possibly even aborting their stay at college for petty theft. Instead let's
    just focus on the moral issue that there has been theft and somebody must take a fall
    for it.

    Ethics suck and I think in the end they hamper our ability to do what is right.

    --"Two things, if each generation is getting dumber, doesn't the older generation hold most of the responsibility, seeing as they are the educators, marketers, producers, etc? So we really must take that responsibility ourselves, no?"

    Most adults in the general population have never reached anywhere near the level of maturity to
    take on that kind of responsibility. Emotional and mental independence haven't been on the
    curriculum now for quiet a while, haven't they? Do note that I'm not saying that this incompetence

    I have some insight into todays curriculum and fifth graders do solve linear equation systems, however
    very limited ones by filling out a magic square so all numbers add up to a certain value in any direction.
    They do not solve arbitrary sets of equations because they've yet to learn the basic algebraic formalisms
    in 7th and 8th grade so at least at present that's in line with my own personal experience as a student
    in school.
