Morality and downloading
RE: Morality and downloading
(April 17, 2015 at 9:14 am)Pizza Wrote: It's more a distinction between reasons for action and motives for action. Like we may have legal reasons to not perform an action, but have a motive to break the law.

Good point also. I think a couple have been very critical of downloading, here. But is there any person here who NEVER disregards any law for personal convenience? How about speed laws? Tax laws? Is there anyone who tries to follow all laws, all the time? Or do different personal circumstances lead to different motives?

I have a feeling, for example, that those with lower incomes will be more likely to download PC games. But I'd bet that those with higher incomes would be more likely to get "creative" on taxes, or to "forget" to report some of their cash income, or to speed a little on their way to the office to beat the rush-hour traffic.
