Looks like I'm very close to where I was a few years back according to this, even though I think I've shifted quite far right in most aspects.

Protecting freedoms is way easier when the biggest enemy to freedom, the government, no longer exists. Contracts can be enforced by private mediation agencies chosen by the participants in the contract.

Some of the questions are better but it's a pain in the arse when they ask you how you feel about 2 things in the same question, an example being, "Do you think that euthanasia and suicide should be legal?". I agree with one but not the other.

Seeing how I'm so into politics, I feel like I need to stick to the best side. It's hard to ignore. (Found a fix, just delete the header)

But the one is just medically assited suicide so they are both suicide :really_makes_you_think:

Actually no. Euthanasia can be committed under both medical and normal terms of suicide where ever you are in the world, for example if you wanted to die or needed help in committing suicide; your friend can just grab a gun and shoot you at anytime, or a medical reason like your friend pressing the off switch on a life-support machine at anytime  to turn off life support, so you can slowly die. However either way, that would be classed as murder and that person who assisted you in euthanasia will be charged with the same charges as a murderer. The only time euthanasia is legal is when the government medically allows a person to die or turn off life-support in certain cases like if you're terminally ill or fully paralysed, then the government will allow it in certain cases.
 
Face it, euthanasia is still the same as suicide no matter what. Even when you think it's more to do with medical terms, euthanasia can still happen outside of government relation and hospitals themselves.

It's not though. Euthanasia is LEGAL suicide whereas suicide is illegal (or that's how it should be). To me, euthanasia makes sense because the person isn't able to live anymore. Suicide however, is done by people who can still work. They should be working to help the economy, not ending their life because they are down. Everyone can become depressed sometimes in their life, you need to fight through it. Not give up and let others suffer because of your lack of self-motivation.

I'm sorry, I won't admit that they are the same. They are the same in concept but done for different reasons and therefore cannot be treated the same.

The only time euthanasia is legal is when the government medically allows a person to die or turn off life-support in certain cases like if you're terminally ill or fully paralysed, then the government will allow it in certain cases.
 
Face it, euthanasia is still the same as suicide no matter what. Even when you think it's more to do with medical terms, euthanasia can still happen outside of government relation and hospitals themselves.

It's not though. Euthanasia is LEGAL suicide whereas suicide is illegal (or that's how it should be). To me, euthanasia makes sense because the person isn't able to live anymore. Suicide however, is done by people who can still work. They should be working to help the economy, not ending their life because they are down. Everyone can become depressed sometimes in their life, you need to fight through it. Not give up and let others suffer because of your lack of self-motivation.

I'm sorry, I won't admit that they are the same. They are the same in concept but done for different reasons. 
Saying that suicidal people are being selfish for removing themselves from the workforce is pretty heartless.

It's not heartless at all. It's selfish not to help the economy that others are working for. Why should the majority suffer because of a few?
It certainly is. Nobody is choosing to be suicidal, by your logic should we also force the elderly and children to work, lest they take more from society than they give?

Anyway, you might be able to make the case for it being a good utilitarian idea, but I don't see how you can claim that it's not a heartless proposal.

I thought you UKIP nerds kept wanting to make more jobs, so if someone kills themselves then good news, job available, stop being a dick. But for real though, if someone has gotten to the point of suicide then it's a major thing, not just a little upset about things, and they need help, or are the concepts of emotions and compassion too difficult for you? If I was told how selfish and lazy I was for wanting to kill myself back when I genuinely did, that's helping nobody, and would've probably pushed me over the edge.

Ergo: Shut up.

Some of the questions are better but it's a pain in the arse when they ask you how you feel about 2 things in the same question, an example being, "Do you think that euthanasia and suicide should be legal?". I agree with one but not the other.
But the one is just medically assited suicide so they are both suicide :really_makes_you_think:

Actually no. Euthanasia can be committed under both medical and normal terms of suicide where ever you are in the world, for example if you wanted to die or needed help in committing suicide; your friend can just grab a gun and shoot you at anytime, or a medical reason like your friend pressing the off switch on a life-support machine at anytime  to turn off life support, so you can slowly die.

To throw it out there, I hate the welfare state in Britain and am so against most welfare in the country. If a person who is 16 can work then they should. That goes up to the age of 65.

While I see that it is ethically wrong to propose it, I am for it. Just like I am for the death penalty, I guess.

I thought you UKIP nerds kept wanting to make more jobs, so if someone kills themselves then good news, job available, stop being a dick.

Ergo: Shut up.

Firstly, my UKIP membership should be taken lightly. Just because I'm in the party doesn't mean I believe in everything they stand for. Even what you said though counters itself, the job is already taken. I was in the same position when I was younger, I understand what it's like to have those emotions. I powered through it though, it took over a year but I came out of it and now I'm happier than ever. I understand, of course that wanting to commit suicide is not just a phase but it's something everyone can get past in their own way. Alright, I have no problem with taking time off work to sort problems but like I say, these things don't take a week. That's why you have to deal with it, just power through.

Suicide however, is done by people who can still work. They should be working to help the economy, not ending their life because they are down. Everyone can become depressed sometimes in their life, you need to fight through it. Not give up and let others suffer because of your lack of self-motivation.

Should people not have freedom to do what they want with their lives, even if that includes not working (for whatever reason)?

Yes, even if you only working for a few hours a week. It's better than nothing. No, I don't believe so. If you are able to work then you should be because society revolves around everyone working together.

You have me there, though. It depends really on what they actually do at home and of course, that's too hard to monitor.

Would you say that it's just morally wrong to intentionally stay out of work, for whatever reason, or would you legally force people to work in that situation, even if they aren't claiming benefits?

I would certainly say that it's morally wrong as you aren't contributing. As for not claiming benefits, that's a different story. That's another case by case scenario as you may be contributing in a different way like being a volunteer. It all depends on how you are getting your money to live.

My dad retired at the age of 55 and hasn't worked since and yes, I'm not happy with it. As for the mega-rich, it's a different situation. Basically, I'm on the fence about it. I would appreciate if they continued to work but obviously, if they contributed way more than the average then I could see it as being acceptable, especially if they were doing charity work after.

Edit: in other news, I somehow came out as a centralist on spekr. Don't know the exact score.

Only attempted suicide can be illegal. Otherwise, you'd be prosecuting a dead person. Or, you'd be prosecuting the family on behalf of the deceased, which is absurd. If someone were to attempt suicide, Mouldy, what would the penalty be? I know it's very nice to be a staunch supporter or something rather out of the norm for someone your age but try to always think logically and not pedantically.

So, if one were to attempt suicide and fail, they would then be fined or ordered to do community service. This doesn't help their situation. Now, not only do they have extreme emotional distress (possibly brought upon by something out of their control) which they can only barely handle but, they have a court order on their hands. This will escalate their situation further as they will think that they are being persecuted for wanting to kill themselves (they don't care if you are not intentionally persecuting for that reason.) This could, more than likely, tip them over the edge and they will have another crack at it and they'd probably succeed the second time. Congrats, you've killed a person.

No-one has contribution to society on their mind when they are contemplating suicide. They want to kill themselves to get out of the hell hole which is life. They're disconnected from the society you're trying to force them back into and to work for, anyway. Also, if they kill themselves, how will that affect the functioning and efficiency of society? If everyone needs to work together to band for one another, if someone kills themselves, that's one less mouth to feed, anyway. Believe it or not, Mouldy, but I don't think society is crumbling at the moment because some people that commit suicide are leaving an extremely small amount of job vacancies.

You and me are like birds of a feather sometimes, Mouldy, but on this issue, you come across as extremely ignorant and heartless.

@Mouldy, your opinion is hella shallow and also extremely over-simplistic. You don't need to work to contribute to the economy. All the economy is is purchasing and selling of goods. As long as you're spending money, you're putting money in somebody else's pocket.

You know that thinking of human beings as just an economic value is borderline sociopathic, right? People aren't killing themselves because they're "down" or because of their "lack of motivation". They have a mental illness. The attitude towards mental health in the UK is ****ing abhorrent. People with depression are just considered to be lazy; they're blamed for an illness that they cannot control. It's not someone's fault that they feel they are in a situation where suicide is the only option. If you want to blame anyone, blame the government for the constant under-funding of the mental health department and the consistent cuts to it despite the fact that suicide rates have increased exponentially over the past 3 years. I honestly don't know how you can say you've been there and then regard someone who kills themselves as being selfish, without the slightest bit of empathy.

"We shouldn't care about whether others want to commit suicide because it's easier just to let themselves do it and move on to another person."

Small story time.

Basically, I'm taking back what I said today and revaluating it all because when I say it back to myself now, it doesn't make a lick of sense. I'm sorry for being a stubborn idiot. I'll come back with an argument that makes a lot more sense.

That's still a rather insensitive statement. That insinuates you just leave suicidal people on their own with no help and would prefer to associate with those that don't have suicidal tendencies (rubbish robot combat pun kinda not intended, soz). I'm sure you don't mean to come across this way, but try to pick your words carefully before you start debating (especially if you wanna be a politician :P).

David Mitchell said a great thing about timorous and reckless people on WILTY. He said warnings are put in place in order to create order for the reckless people. However, that leaves the timorous ones in a state of 'perpetual terror'. So, I think that, even though rehab is very good and should be used with prisoners, I do believe punishment should exist as a deterrent to even commit any crime. So, in the end, in theory, all the timorous people won't even consider committing a crime, whilst the reckless ones are significantly deterred.

Someone who attemps suicide needs help, not punishment.  Being forced into a mental institution by the government isn't what I'd consider help either.

Also, punishment for crime should focus on making the perpetuator pay restitution to the victims.

This is why i said some but not all. Was simply stating that punishment wasn't the only or best answer.

hurting someone's feelings != crime

"...the actor must intend to cause severe emotional distress or know that severe emotional distress is likely to occur."

Get to the point where life is going so badly wrong that you'd rather end your own existence than suffer through another day: Not a victim.

This isn't really what I meant.

David Mitchell said a great thing about timorous and reckless people on WILTY. He said warnings are put in place in order to create order for the reckless people. However, that leaves the timorous ones in a state of 'perpetual terror'.

I should've said IMO. I'm fully aware that hurting someone's feefees can be a criminal offense. I think that that is really stupid, even in extreme cases.

Wanted to revisit this to see if I changed any in the past few years

Didn't screenshot my compass test but it was Geice's, except a bit closer to the center.
I'm becoming less authoritarian but more right wing, even tho I've landed in the centre (on the left/right spectrum, at least)
