Oh absolutely. I mean, witness the defunding of radio free Europe etc. Also, even if they hate Hollywood, it's still the American economy.

I feel a shot at "woke hollywood propaganda" isn't going to bother trumpworld all that much.
Utilitarianism makes sense from first principles, Kant is just his opinions.
It's act vs rule ethics, what is ethical in a particular situation may not be broadly applicable to society.
Edit: And from the religious parents perspective, letting your beloved child suffer an eternity of torment is probably not super moral. I may disagree but that's their perspective and there's no arbiter make the call.
I think that's the ethical answer too.
We can't know who is right, so I don't see any ethical way to intervene.
I hate when I see parents giving their kids a screen instead of interacting with them or worse, ignoring their kid im favour of their phone. But again, I don't feel it is ethical to interfere.
Fully agree, he's always struck me as a food person on stage and it was a relief he lived up to it.
Polievre: Acting like a human with interests?!? That's not fair!
Their kid, their call up until the point the child's safety is in danger.
I have no more right to tell them how to raise their kids than they have about my entirely hypothetical and undesired kids. I may not agree with their choices and they may not agree with mine, I may think they are raising their kids to be less moral, they may think the same with the added bonus that I'm condemning mine to an eternity of torment.
That's life in a pluralistic society.
I startled Paul F Tompkins at an improv show by bumping into him as we both rounded a corner. We spoke really briefly but he was funny, courteous and we both apologized for startling the other and I laughed at his good joke about it and he politely pretended to laugh at mine.
I saw a Sedin twin (no idea which one) and we gave the guy nod to each other as I biked past. Oh, and last year I saw Rick Tocchet during the playoff run (but he was on the phone and I didn't want to bug the guy.)
The best one was Kyle Wellwood, who was a mediocre but adorable player. But I saw him at a DJ set where he was with some famous ufc guy and together they were with a half dozen women, none of whom were interested in Wellwood who sat around looking jealous and vaguely annoyed.
I have to think that's why Carney hasn't brought it up yet. If I were managing his campaign, I would be so excited about the opportunity to let Canada watch him encounter the reality of his position live.
Carney's promised some 10 billion to affordable homes which I think is more than triple the entire current Housing Accelerator fund.
More importantly, a half million new home starts a year helps the rental market. Rents are finally falling however slightly as new housing comes online, a trend that should accelerate as we more than double our homebuilding.
This has been tried and repealed in a lot of other places. If memory serves, it also led to a significant increase in homicides. (If there's no difference between robbery and murder, there is no incentive to leave witnesses.)
And Trailer Park Boys notwithstanding, it's not like the usual addict criminal is really thinking "well, I'll only get a couple years, no biggie" before committing a crime.
