But think of taxes, how many people would pay their full share if they knew they were not going to get caught? Or piracy, how many people would pay full price for a game/cd/dvd if they knew there would be no consequences? In both cases the number of people who would do the right thing is miniscule.

You are imagining one group of individuals over everyone. That's not it. You need each group with power to be supervised by another, independent group.

| 0 | Going Dutch on DinnerWhich was my point from the start. Split the cost, don't count the pennies or drops.

| 0 | Going Dutch on DinnerIt goes without saying that if one person's meal costs significantly less then you don't split evenly, but personally I've rarely come across that situation, normally the difference would be a couple of euros. Sometimes you pay a bit more sometimes a bit less.

It has nothing to do with what is actually done in the house, rather in my experience men tend to buy the product they are familiar with and are unlikely to change it unless the other product is discounted or such, and this was also explained to me by some of my students who work at Nielsen the marketing research company, men are less likely to be affected by this sort of advertisement/advertisement for this sort of products. Also wo… | /r/MensRights | 11/07/12 09:10 AM |
| 9 | U.S. says Texas police department discriminated against women - by requiring they pass the same physical test required for men.If that job requires those physical standards then lowering the required results to allow women in is only reducing the quality of those doing the job. | /r/MensRights | 07/07/12 09:19 PM |
| 1 | Oxford dictionary can go kill itselfI was actually being facetious, I agree entirely with your point. Although personally I would have taken it further, using complex language to describe simple things is not a sign of intelligence or knowledge it is the exact opposite. Explaining the most difficult things in the simplest words is more difficult and productive than using "big" words to talk about simple things. However the length and difficulty of the words used does actually affect an argument/discussion/debate, especially in an … | /r/MensRights | 02/06/12 11:55 AM |
| 0 | Oxford dictionary can go kill itselfActually you're wrong, use of low syllabic words and a simpler vocabulary make the discussion available/accessible to a larger audience reducing communication barriers and preventing misunderstandings, this is especially true when discussing things on the internet where many people are not mother tongue speakers. So not only is it not necessary, as you say, it is actually counter-productive. | /r/MensRights | 02/06/12 11:16 AM |
| 2 | Edna Hancock, 57, killed Andrea Ruby, 28, while driving drunk. Hancock's alcohol level was .279. Judge sentences to 45 days jail. Judge adds "...it's a very severe sentence."I'm no lawyer and don't live in the the US, so I'm not familiar with your law, but linguistically this is criminally negligent homicide. She committed a crime, drink driving, it resulted in a death. No matter what a month and a half in jail is very, very light imo and the judge claiming its a "severe sentence" is offensive to the victim. Overall I agree prosecutors should do their best to not overcharge, but this reminds me of a case in Italy where a guy celebrating New Year's shot a gun off in … | /r/MensRights | 11/05/12 02:49 PM |
| 2 | Edna Hancock, 57, killed Andrea Ruby, 28, while driving drunk. Hancock's alcohol level was .279. Judge sentences to 45 days jail. Judge adds "...it's a very severe sentence."Correct me if I'm wrong but SHE claims the other car "was over the centre line" and she was driving drunk, I missed where her claim is confirmed. I have enough trouble believing anything my drunk alter-ego does, sees or says and I've never driven drunk, why should she be believed? Based on the article the only proven fact is she got drunk then decided to drive, and that resulted in a death. | /r/MensRights | 10/05/12 08:57 PM |
| 1 | If you want respect, police yourselves.The wage gap is a myth. "Glass ceilings" are not, but read up on it a bit, or even just read the papers claiming the gap and you realise that in the vast majority of cases a woman and a man working the same job and same hours are paid the same. Men on average are paid more because 1) it is easier for a man to reach top positions in a company (a few years ago only 1.5% of Fortune 500 CEOs were women, I don't know the number now but I doubt it is much better) 2) Men are more likely to take on dang… | /r/MensRights | 06/05/12 12:58 PM |
