ok this is a big thing hears the deal whut do you want to hapin to a person that kills one of your family member would you want them to stay in prison for life like what it is now where prisons is overflowing becase of this or would you like to have them exicutid becase they took a life so should theres be taken too???
Well, executing people is a lot cheaper than keeping them alive in jail....
But using the electric chair takes a lot of electricity, and an injection is rather expensive as it is. It doesn't take very much to keep people alive in jail, rather than supplying cheap bean slop and dim lights every day...
If they get a kick out of killing and to say murdered on purpose is wrong, murder is the offense not murder on purpose, in self defense its not murder.

Really? You are going to copy and paste from wiki as part of your argument? Considering that none of the above definitions fit the criteria of my belief, I believe you wasted your time. BTW -PLEASE, I beg of you, do NOT give me another popsickle analogy, as that analogy also had NOTHING to do with this argument.
people also WILL get AIDS. seems to you that a probability means it WILL happen. throw some quantum physics in there and i think you'll second guess.
Huh? Once again, the above scenario is NOT, I repeat, NOT a probability ... it IS a reality ... in addition what does quantum physics have to do with this argument? Be careful what you answer, I most probably (an almost certainty) know more about quantum physics then you do. I don't doubt now, that I know more about a lot of things then you... Not only because of your posts and "analogies" but because I take the time to read someones bio, unlike yourself. Graham, you really need to take the time to understand the true definition of idealism because you are completely off the mark.
A public good is a good that is non-rivaled and non-excludable. This means, respectively, that consumption of the good by one individual does not reduce availability of the good for consumption by others; and that no one can be effectively excluded from using the good.
An other sub-category are the free goods, the goods that are not in scarce. A free good is available in as great a quantity as desired with zero opportunity cost to society.
But for example water it's not always a free good, it's a common good because competition for water is rivalrous. We usually don't pay for public/free gods, but everything can become a product. This does not of course mean that there is nothing free, we may have just to pay in some cases for it.

it fits what prejudice i've gained from your posts

jus cause you don't understand doesn't mean they have nothing to do with an argument. couldya give me an example where that lil equation works? (other than death penalty)
NOT a probability ... it IS a reality ...
so what is real? ideas and events can always be circumvented by probability.
the point of bringing quantum physics in the argument was to prove nothing is 100% ie. nothing is perfect.
This is true, and exactly the reason we shouldn't be practicing capital punishment.
as punishment for making me read suuch a long thing. (jking jeez lighten up.) i provide you this link :P
LOL ... OK ... I started reading it and already have quite a few statistics to counteract what Wesley Lowe has to say, however, I don't have time today, working a double, so I'll get back to you on that tomorrow. I promise.
