Rush to Die Phenomenon

The tendency of a government to make policies and regulations that cause people to suffer and or die in larger numbers and or sooner rather than make policies that reduce people's suffering. This issue can be seen very frequently when the government is dealing with taxation, corruption, disease outbreaks, water and air pollution caused by hazardous waste, etc.
Hugo: The government keeps raising taxes every year, even though they know that large numbers of people may be driven into homelessness and may not be able to afford the resources they need to survive. This may lead to many people enduring unnecessary suffering. Why do they keep doing this every year?
Alan: Because many of our political leaders care more about their agenda than the actual needs of the people. They could have tried to make a new revenue source that does not rely taxes to generate income to help eliminate the need to raise taxes every year, but they are lazy and argue its unnecessary; when in fact it should have been done years ago. This issue is an example of the Rush to Die Phenomenon.

romantic entitlement

Two ethical problems that arise when an individual asks someone out. They include:
-The assumption that if you ask someone out, then they have to say yes to the person who asked them out. However, this is not true as it is up to the person getting asked to decide. They should say no if they don’t like you to avoid causing both of you to suffer a lot of unnecessary pain down the line.
-The presumption by one or both of the people involved that it is acceptable to spread bad rumors about the other person if the person asking the individual out gets rejected. This leads to unnecessary conflict and distrust of each other which benefits neither of you. Just because it didn't work out does not mean that they are entitled to spread bad rumors about each other or that you two can't be friends anymore.
Romantic entitlement causes a lot of unnecessary suffering to a large number of people. People should try to avoid making these presumptions about romantic relationships in order to reduce their own and the person they like's suffering.

people search website

A website you go to when you want to learn more about a person in regards to things the average person who does not know them is not supposed to know, such as the individual's criminal record, where they live presently and in the past, who are their relatives, both in their immediate family and their extended family, their current and past cell phone numbers and emails, etc.
Brittany: How do you know so much about Andrew?
Sarah: I found a website on the internet that lets you search for people you know and lets you learn more about their background than most public accessible resources are able to provide. I bought a report using a credit card yesterday.
Brittany: You shouldn't have used that website. That was a people search website, which lets you look up people's private information without them knowing about. Generally, its not ethical to use them, unless your searching yourself.
Sarah: I didn't know that. I'll keep that in mind next time.

Hunting

1: When a person or another animal is going to kill another animal for food or as a trophy
2: When an individual goes online in order to find more information on another person, but unlike tracking, when an individual is hunting they are looking for information a person who does not know that individual is not supposed to have and they frequently use people search websites to acquire the information they are looking for

Romantic sense

1: The ability of an individual to be able to tell what their romantic partner is thinking and how they’re feeling both physically and emotionally, which allows them to better address their partner’s needs and desires. This often helps to build and maintain a strong romantic bond between the partners; and facilitates more intimacy between them.
2: The ability of a person to read other people they know to figure out who they might be compatible with and or who they are likely attracted to, assuming they have not already told you. Having a strong social political sense in addition to this could be helpful in being able to accurately use this skill.
Cameron: I think Lily likes Timothy.
Xaldin: What makes you think that?
Cameron: Whenever they look at each other they seem to smile and over the past month when they get lunch, they always sit next to each other in the cafeteria.
Xaldin: Yeah, now I see what you’re saying. You seem to have a strong romantic sense.
