It Costs Too Much To Make Record Coal Profits!

[Ashendant]

Pragmatically, an average life is worth about as much as the trouble it would cost you to take it. The long term trend of western civilization has been to making it more costly to take a life born. The republicans lay the disingenuous smoke screen of right to life to divert attention from their real interest in reversing the progress of western civilization and greatly reduce the cost of taking a life already born.

Pragmatically, anything is worth only what it accomplishes towards my goal. If it accomplishes nothing toward my goal, then it is worth nothing. If it hinders my goal greatly, it must be eliminated. If it is vital, it must be protected.

Whatever a society at large tends to view the worth of a life as is absolutely worthless pragmatically. I don't disagree about the intent of the big players behind the republican party though.

Education is a investment by society that makes life worth more after all it takes both time and money to educate people, so it makes them worth more
