ORIGINAL: respectmen This was way back in my early 20s when I found out about this. I knew it was wrong back then but didn't really think about how wrong it was. I saw it was wrong on one level but didn't think about that it was wrong on many levels. Now at the age of 35, I can see how completely wrong it truly is. I hardly worked or had any experience of work in my early 20s and didn't stop to think how hard people work to pay their taxes for others to spend. Yep, I'm definately wrong to accept it back then and now I have corrected it. Now you lot are criticising me for correcting the fault on my end. So what makes someone a better person and morally superior? 1. If they simply accept it to keep happening and let the said woman rob 100s of 1000s more from the government. 2. Call out on it to try to put a stop to it and save the government from wasting 100s of 1000s more on the said woman? Do you really think the gov, in your country is just passing out wads of cash to this woman? quote:
Speaking of hypocrisy, it's being deeply hypocritical to criticise me for not calling out on it in the past and then criticse me for calling out on it in the present. Each and every one of the replies in this thread seem to hand wave away what wrong she did, which you are criticising me for doing in the past, and using your attacks on me as an alternative to hand wave away what she did. I have to go with not. The only circumstance that really changed was the woman ticked you off, so you want to get back at her now. All you really seem to have is hearsay (what she told you) from at least ten years ago. quote:
How is that any better than me accepting it many years ago? How does it make things any better to totally be care free of what she is doing and making the whole topic about me? Why does it bother you now, rather than it not bothering you then? Did the circumstances change? Are you going to tell me that over ten years later, you came to this epiphany? It wasn't wrong when she was your friend, in your good graces. You were very specific about what changed your mind. A part of this is a question of morals and ethics, how it relates to what a person has done, etc. Do you seriously believe the crime the person has supposedly committed matter ENOUGH? Has the wrong-doing you are trying to prop yourself up with affected you SO MUCH that whatever you have paid in for taxes has such an impact? How many millions of people do you have in your country? What do you think you really spent? How many of your pennies mattered? For what it's worth, I'm not saying that the golden rule should be that no one should ever out anyone, EVER. While I don't believe it should be over stuff like tax evasion, speeding tickets, or jaywalking, there are times when a crime has been committed against you, as an individual, this may have to happen. If someone has been a victim of a sexual assault, a felony, been the victim of stalking, or harassment... Yes, this is probably going to have to happen. You may not have a choice, anymore. It sucked for me having to out my stalker. But, I knew it was a part of it. I wrestled with it. One of my greatest regrets in my life was that I didn't do what I should have done. When I finally did, I knew outing was going to be a part of it. Until the day I actually had to go to the authorities, I didn't do the stuff you are talking about.
