Reply #13: I think your idea of ethics research is awful [View All]

When you wrote, Boojatta, "Would you oppose the existence of any government funding to finance ethics research if the people doing the research were to be paid an hourly rate of no more than one and a half times minimum wage?"

I think you gave it away. You're bargaining desperately for some rationale for ethics research, and keeping people's earnings low seems to me to be a strange way to defend their output. If it's important no one would be talking about keeping wages as low as possible.

Stupid idea.
