Treat this entry as whining for all u like~ guys and gals and wadeva that goes in between~~
i really wanna say something that suddenly brought about deep thinking today...
and i really mean DEEP thinking~~~
not that i hardly think but maybe i jus thought a little bit more XD hahaha
Mr Tiew was going thru the econs homework today
the one on activity 4... the case study of bonneville thingy... the power or fish de
then we were like having "some" form of discussion in the class
about how we shld support the case of power instead of fish
BLAH BLAH BLAH... the story goes on~~~
then he mentioned something about economists calculating whether benefits or cost
is going to outweigh the other or something like that lar...
then a qn was raised~~~~~~
"how would we actually measure the value of life"
as a strong believer in philosophy... i was very intrigued 0.o dun diao me ok
he said that economists actually calculate EVERYTHING, including life, as monetary value
so as to make it easier for decisions to be made
for small small cases that we calculate the value of life i dun care lar
but what if it actually involves big cases of valuable life??!!
to me life can never be calculated in monetary values
even if someone killed some other guy in a car accident and was fined...
the victim was 40 yrs old and have about 30 more yrs to live
so they calculate like that and determine how much the culprit has to be fined
including whether the victim has big families or wadeva past records he have....
BUT
does that mean that his life can be judged like that
does that ending his life in such a way makes him deserve to be valued and compared to money!
PLS lar economists... i noe that money is a standard for all worldwide and its convenience is such that it can be used to calculate MOST things....
but nvr use money to calculate human life...
after all money is invented by humans... an invention that was
never needed in this world
a means of possesing stuff that u can or able to... an act of selfishness
oh and one more thing... does economists allocating scarce resources to appropriate areas...
mean that as humans they allocate their love and concern to ppl whom they think shld deserve more...
a person picks up $10 for you and you treat him to a drink
soeme other person picks up a pen for you and you may not even say thanks...
is that how the heart of economists works???
what are we actually studying in economics anyway...
to really be able to analyse and use scarce resources??
or to create selfish individuals who use the value of money to compare with things in our everyday lives???
IF
Eqn1: money = root of all evil
sub (1) into sentence... blah blah
THEN
PLS do not place the value of "root of all evil" on lives!!!
i have a bad impression on economics now that i know what economists actually do...
not jus analyse the allocation of scarce resources or something...
but to compare priceless stuff wif money...
humans are doing enuf bad things to the world already...
pls atone for ur sins and not commit anymore
omg i am so philosophical tonite!!!!!
haha i'm done
i hope that i'm wrong in my current perspective... hope econs is not that bad after all~~
but if my impression of econs worsen after 3 mths... then i shall drop econs...
