Faction and the Tech-mix

[McNeo]

It is better to leave the guilty ones unpunished rather than punish the innocent. One of the main principals in todays law theory. Someone messed up. And now you are all going to the simpliest solution. Zeroing everyone to wash the hands off. That is how it seems for me to be.

Today's law actually applies to everybody as well, and some laws only need to be made because of the actions of others. This places a restriction on you that never applied before, all because someone else did something that the lawmakers thought was bad. The most recent economic crisis is evidence of this, but it applies generally to law theory as well.

"And as I also said earlier, the logical conclusion of freedom, which is what fairness relies upon, is chaos, whereas the logical conclusion of equality is sterility"

I don't live in a world which is either black or white.

Nor do I, but the closer you go to either freedom or equality, the more chaotic or more sterile the environment becomes. What we're really arguing about is the balance of the two, and it so happens that I view sterility as a lesser evil when compared to chaos. In other words, we're arguing about which kind of grey we'd like.
