I don't think there should be government regulators because of gold or something.

It all depends how the people are killed. If somebody justs shoots them point blank, I go with A. However if it is more nuanced, such as dying in some sort of foreseeable work related accident to completing the task, then I gotta go with B.

Frankly, I don't think I can or should prevent people from killing themselves, however I think I should prevent other people from killing each other (therefore the John thing is out).

I think that your poop and pee question accurately sums up the worth of this so-called moral hypothetical. I also predict that your toilet quandary will generate far more worthwhile discussion.

I have no clue how much debate it'll get here, but its causing quite a bit of interesting debates elsewhere:

Why do you people support the worst poster in the history of 2p2 by taking his asinine threads as serious and devote time to them?

Don't encourage the poor little retarded kid.

Are John and all the other employees of equal likability?

Oops didn't see that they are. Obviously John gets the axe

If I choose C, do they know? I'd probably do that if it just sort of worked out that only John died (this way the remaining wouldn't feel super guilty).
