  1. penalties not incentives on Company Incentives for Going Green? · · Score: 2, Insightful
    we all know that mass amounts of pollution is bad for the environment.

    so why do we pay companies (in tax breaks) to keep on doing something that is bad for the environment?

    Would I pay my son to stop hitting his brother? - So why should I pay a company with my tax dollars to stop polluting. It should be the other way around. Penalize them, then we'll see a bunch of companies go green quick!

  2. Prisoners Frozen in Carbonite on Stem Cells Restore Feeling In Paraplegic · · Score: 1

    So you would be OK with cryogenically freezing all the prisoners to have scientist revive them at their release date and modify some trait (that could have never taken place to begin with) to make them capable of interacting normally in society maybe artificially inseminating normalcy into a prisoner? The ethical problem starts from the beginning, if you create life you have just created death. Would you say that frozen prisoner is alive or is living while frozen? And then if he gets freezer burn, is he dead?
