Piracy's Own Punishment

Piracy's Own Punishment 08/16/2004 12:24 PM

On Piracy. If it is true, first, that widespread piracy at some point diminishes the incentives for industry to invest in new works; And if it is true, second, that piracy is limited to a demographic, say, 15-25 year-olds (perhaps because people older than that are lazy or value their...

Arguments against Capital Punishment 07/19/2004 01:08 PM
While reading the news recently, I have found two things that depress me more than any others. They make me doubt my faith in human nature. They are (1) the crimes people commit; and (2) the desire for vengeance of the victims. That (2) depresses me as much as (1) has led to several heated arguments with friends and family.
