Ethics [Tuesday, September 20, 2011, 1st period]

"Good morning, class," Anakin said, sweeping into the room with a steaming cup of coffee. Of course he hadn't brought any to share. Are you new? "Today we talk about the power of money, and the moral issues that arise with that. Are there things that money shouldn't be able to buy? Do those things exist in your dimensions? After a quick discussion, I'll give you a hypothetical scenario as well for you to discuss among yourselves."

"No," Jack said with a shake of his head. "Because what if another person who can't afford it needs a kidney?"

"They're gonna die," Kenzi said fatalistically. "It blows.'

"Nice," Jack said sarcastically.

"No," Kenzi said mournfully. She was pretty sure that if she didn't earn enough money someday, she'd need to do this. Or someone would have to sell a kidney for her. "I just don't know what else to do. I mean. Nobody gets a kidney, nobody lives, right?"

"So?" Topher was respectful of people's beliefs like that. "At least someone got it, right?"

"And what if you're the poor schmuck who couldn't outbid the guy who got the kidney?"

"They can go on dialysis!!!" Hank chimed in. He had the answer to a question! That sort of almost made him smart!!!

"Oh, don't make me smack you," Jack warned.

"No, they can..." Hank protested. "'Cause, Pop did it this one time, after Mexicans stole his kidneys and left him in a tub of ice."

"And how are they going to afford dialysis when they can't afford a kidney?" Jack said rolling his eyes.

"Is it expensive?" Hank asked. Sure, he might be surprisingly adept when it came to business and commerce, but that didn't mean he really understood the value of a dollar.

He thought about it for a while. "... OH! They could hold a BAKE SALE!!!"

"I already threatened you with the smacking, right?"
