It would probably take at least one or two generations to solve (humanely) the overpopulation problem, but eventually world hunger would be solved as well. Maybe. Kind of reminds me of that essay A Modest Proposal by Jonathan Swift. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I presume we don't repeal the laws for murder & manslaughter. So the two preconditions to eat someone is: 1/ They are already dead. Roadkill is a no, you cant have motorists fighting over a carcass & the family should have first dibs anyway. No, the police, coroner etc. would have to satisfy the requirements of the law. But this might be good for mortuaries, and a valuable new source of revenue. 2/ They volunteer to be consumed. But they would have to kill themselves without assistance (suicide is legal but assisted suicide is not). Now that cannibalism is legal, there would be a whole new area of food preparation. Gastronomic innovation would flourish. Edited May 9, 2021 by merciful-evans felt like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am writing several essays about the Great Depression of the early 20th century and the company https://assignmentbro.com/ca/buy-assignment-online with which I have been cooperating for several months and which is always ready to help if I have any problems with writing academic text. It reminded me, too, of the stories of the Great Depression. Edited May 28, 2021 by Mariron 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitefang Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Truisms? "Free advice is worth the price". The cost of any car repair will always be 25-30% higher than what you can afford. You will usually feel the need to seriously pass gas when you're somewhere that it wouldn't be advisable. Whitefang Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
