THE PRICE OF MORAL LIFE

I don’t see the problem with paying people to have moral incentives versus by not paying them and providing them with immoral incentives. The difference is that I don’t think they natively deserve anything. I just acknowledge that we all follow our incentives and that for those people who cannot engage in production, they need an incentive to act as if they do. So why not pay them to police the world for criminal, unethical, and immoral conduct and then deprive tehm if that payment if they fail in their duties?

That isn’t a question then of free riding, or allowing them to act immorally. It’s a question of exchange. We need the world free of criminal, unethical, immoral, conspiratorial behavior, and we need it clean, and well maintained in order for those of us who are productive to live in something other than gated communities. So lets pay people to do a lot of very simple work: act morally.

Right now, the underclasses have every motive to act immorally and the state has every incentive to profit from their immorality. So why not force the state to act morally by forcing the underclasses to act morally, by PAYING them to act morally.

I’ll deal with the upper classes later. But I’ve got them covered too.
