You see this all the time. People think that poor countries should jump directly to having the same salary and working conditions as a rich country because it is wrong that they work under such conditions. They want to jump to the ideal directly even if it took a long time for rich countries to afford such conditions.
technically speaking, they "should" in the moral sense that they deserve the same opportunities. it's just that's it's not physically possible from an economic standpoint.
@@erubin100 everyone deserves to be a billionaire!
Come to the country of 90% billionaires of Venezuelan and Zimbabwe!
What if I told you that you can have a house, a car, a family and only have 1 person working?
Now… that means you have what is a trade off.
You live in a 2000+ft house and not a 800 one. You have 2, 3 maybe 4 cars for the whole family and not 1.
You guys expensive name brands and so on.
Now taxes are higher and the welfare state is much bigger.
You can say ‘I’ll make cars for 5$ a hour’ from Mexico but in America the people demand 48$ a hour.
Which do you think provides more cars for more people?
The one at 5$ a hour.
And who’s getting heating this winter?
Those who demand environmentalism, and so on- or those that just drill?
Whatever let's u keep ur day job 🤷

One of my teachers ages ago called this The Garden Of Eden fallacy.
Good one! Thanks.
The world isn't only in white anc black colours. The grey is dominant.
A variation of this, that I found more and more, is:
the perfect solution is unattainable anyway, so why bother maintaining the current solution.
I find them especially present for question about fairness.
Ex :“The word is unfair, so why bother continuing trying to make it fair.”
As an argument for someone, proposing an “improvement” to a current system from a certain point of view (generally in accord with a moral ideology), but that would ruin the experience of others.
I understand the logic, "the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few," and all that jazz, and I'm not saying it's wrong, but it does kind of require you to become something of a vindictive god who effectively decides who lives and who dies. anyone who can make these types of choices and still sleep well at night would be someone I would stay the hell away from.
Of course that also requires you to mind other peoples business instead of your own when you decide the ‘needs’ for others.

Is the voice changed, or it's just me, 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Yeah
Off on a bit of tangent, but this is exactly how we should view body image and beauty in people's bodies. No, fat people aren't beautiful. No, people can't be perfectly beautiful. Doesn't mean we should do away with the ideal, just because we know we can never reach it!
