Practical Ethical Question
What if the whole world was wrapped in Nukes, and if every person was given a wireless voting system?
Lets say it was implemented by aliens or something like it, in such a fashion that every human being could vote while no one could see your vote, but you could change your vote along the way.
You could vote either to blow up the world, or not. Once the counter reached more than 50%, the world would explorde to spacial smithereens.
The system is impervous to tampering, resulting in instant death of those involved in the tampering attempt.
Would you think that it would be a positive experience to Earth? I think it would. Comunism failed at denying the most basic of human facts, that we are all different. Capitalism is wrong also, because no man is a billion times better than any other given human being. Differences among individuals should not exceed tenfold or something like it.
With this device in mind, I am mostly sure charity and international aid would rise dramatically, and the inequalities that plague our world would diminish.
Do you people think that Earth would last much?
