A new school of ethics I've developed. The Gordian School.

Much like Alexander the Great cutting the Gordian Knot in half, I have come to believe that all of the worlds ethical problems can be solved with cutting things in half.

Climate change

How much pollution is it ethical to create in pursuit of economic growth?  Just cut the earth in half, the increased surface area will let it cool faster. Now we can pollute all we want.

Strait of Hormuz

What is the most ethical to do to get it open again, and help poorer nations avoid the pain of high oil prices?  Just cut it in half long ways.  Now with two Straits Iran will never be able to blockade both.

Wealth Inequality

How do you solve the destabilizing nature of high wealth inequality? Just cut everyone’s wealth in half.  Elon Musk currently has 782 billion dollars and I have five thousand.  If we cut both of those in half, the gap shrinks considerably. 

Water Scarcity

Nestle trying to privatize water? Concerned about arid nations starting water wars? Just cut the atoms in half and have twice as much.

Male loneliness epidemic

Concerned about isolated young men being drawn towards radical ideas or doing really stupid shit? Just cut them in half, now they will have a new friend to keep them company!

I challenge any of you to come up with any ethical concern that can't be fixed with this old idea made new!
