My neighbor’s wife has one of those sun tans which looks like she could be sliced up and sold as an expensive accessory for Gucci. Who am I to judge? I’m not. I am only interested because her husband is the area’s most well-respected oncologist.

Hey Mike, it’s the same Joe from here. Since that discussion went another way a long time ago, I thought I’d come here and let you know that I came across that passage just in the introduction to The Ethics of Liberty and while I was slightly shocked, it’s also completely true. There is no ethical responsibility. Perhaps a moral one, but definitely not an ethical one.

Not a very popular view, but hard to refute on ethical grounds.
