No, what should be is the greatest good for the most beings for the longest period of time.
It must be the greatest good for the ones that do the greatest work. Otherwise you have communism, where freeloaders like you make the same as those of us that work 12 hr. days. That we do not want.

NEW YORK (AP) - Spotify's popular U.S. podcaster Joe Rogan apologized Saturday after a video compilation surfaced that showed him using racial slurs in clips of episodes over a 12-year span.

“It's not my word to use. I am well aware of that now, but for years I used it in that manner,” he said during the six-minute video on his Instagram account. “I never used it to be racist because I'm not racist.”

Rogan's mea culpa follows Grammy award-winning singer-songwriter India.Arie's announcement on Thursday that she was removing her music from the Spotify streaming service because of racial slurs that Rogan had made during his podcasts. She posted the video montage of Rogan's clips on her Instagram account.

In her video, Arie said even if some of Rogan's conversations were taken out of context, “he shouldn't be uttering the word.”
“Don't even say it under any context,” she added.

Has he said something no one else has ever said? If you ever called someone else an asshole you are exactly like Joe, only dumber.

If there are freeloaders that are causing harm, then it is not the greatest good for the most people.

So, in effect, you actually agree with me.

Freeloaders always cause harm. They cost the rest of us money.
S you finally agree we should turn welfare into workfare.

Get rid of retired people and people who legitimately cannot work because of an injury?

Are you retarded?

Retired people already paid for their retirement fund.
Since when are those that cannot work freeloaders? Is this another example of how the far left feels about those that cannot look after themselves? Disposable, so the rest of you can have more freebies?

Oh, only the kinds of freeloaders you like.

I get it now.

You won't get anywhere using a broad, loaded term, so go with more specific criticisms instead.

False equivalence.

Leftists Continue Attacking Joe Rogan for Being Racist, But by Same Standard Joe Biden is a Big-League Racist Too​

The far-left is claiming Joe Rogan is a racist based on some old videos showing him using the N-word. But this was taken out of context. By the same standard, Joe Biden is a big-league racist.

Rogan was taped using the “N-word” over and over but the context in which he was talking is not given with the piece making it look like he used the word randomly throughout the day. It is not true to claim Rogan is a racist who uses the N-word all the time.

Defenders of Joe Rogan have been circulating a 1985 clip of then-Senator Joe Biden using the uncensored n-word at a hearing, absent crucial context. While the manipulation is obvious, the full story and video are worth taking a look at.
At issue: an attempt to rebut a viral video that the popular resistance Twitter account Patriot Takes posted, which featured a supercut of Rogan saying the n-word — uncensored — on his podcast over the years.

See the fact that they're not the same situation.

What is it with conservatives and shitty, unconvincing talking points?

Too bad Joe isn't Black. He could say that The Holocaust wasn't about race (Whoopi Goldberg) or go on a full Hitler-channeling, nazi rhetoric spewing rant about Whites and Jews like Nick Cannon.
Whoopi gets a two week suspension to "take advantage of a teaching moment", and while Nick Cannon was fired from CBS/Viacom, Oprah immediately told him he could be on her network. Meanwhile, his show is STILL being shown on Much Music.

But yeah, racist words and actions have "consequences", apparently. :unsure:
