Why would B make that flute if he has no idea what to do with it? The only explanation is that B made it to provide it to A, and if that's the case, why would they be fighting? Also C should be black.

The obvious answer is that B made it to sell it. If A wants it, she should pay B.

Child B should own it, but should be encouraged to share/lend it with Child A since they can actually play it.

Wrong. A and C are communist because they assume that the one who naturally owns it, B, should distribute it to someone else based on arbitrary wants/needs. B is a capitalist because they are practicing their non-aggression principle in that they provided the materials AND labor for it (implying she is not an employee of a company) and therefore is the natural owner of said item.

Well obviously if we're drawing a parallel to human nature and society then obviously the three adults (representing the talentless, the consumer and the rich) all rape them and take the flute for themselves.
Now draw a doujin of it.
>>
>>730479792
Nothing implies B is anymore capable of playing the flute than C, so ultimately letting her keep the flute is a waste of her own effort, since she cant play it and will just hoard it as a symbol of wasted raw materials. A is the only one who will make the flute not be as worthless as paper weight.

>>730479614

>>730479313
the issue is when B has 1000000 flutes and is using those flutes to get more flutes and is strangling all the worlds flutes production so that no one anywhere can have flutes but her.
if anyone else even wanted to make a flute they couldnt because they're priced out of all the materials and or flute making machines.
and then when she dies she leaves the flutes to her immediate children so the cycle continues.

in that case I think a government has to step in and give some flutes to A's
but also give a handful to C's so they dont shit up society by robbing people for flutes.
>>
>>730479313
B should sell the flute to A.

Correct.

Not yours or anyone else's call to make. It'd only be a waste of effort if B decided it was a waste of effort
>since she cant play it and will just hoard it as a symbol of wasted raw materials
Yet she sees value in it, so it's not "wasted" raw material.
>A is the only one who will make the flute not be as worthless as paper weight.
Worth is determined by the owner, and then by the buyer should the item be put up for sale. Inanimate objects do not inherently possess value.

>Not yours or anyone else's call to make.
Clearly it is or else we wouldnt be discussing it now.
>Inanimate objects do not inherently possess value.
Yes, but i say they are given value by how they can be used. And the only one who can use the flute is A.
>But that's for B to decide
B can't play the damn flute and nothing implies she'll ever be able to.If we start considering hypotethicals we'd have to wonder why A doesn't already have a flute, why B even made a flute and how the hell we are playing judge in this occasion.

In fewer words, A is the only one equipped to make proper use of the flute, which will be wasted in anyone else's hands.
>>

It's the option for actual niggerbrained individuals who believe that if you have more than them, you are in the wrong, and will make up any excuse (including appeals to pity) to get what you have.

>"I deserve the flute because I took it.

Its a flawed premise. In real life it wouldn't work like this

The scenario directly implies that the flute has been taken from B and is being offered back like some weird justice system. You saying that A should have it just reinforces that you're a thief who would gladly steal from someone the moment you think they don't "deserve" it (an arbitrary, subjective decision no matter what). Actual shitskin mentality.

No by their logic the moment you create anything that someone can actually use you should give it up to them because what is the point of a tool without someone to weld it?

I would assume that if someone actually went to the effort of MAKING a flute they would have some interest in learning to play it. If not that they intent to sell it or gift it to someone else. I made a spice rack for my mom in wood shop once. It wasn't a very good spice rack. It wasn't a very good wood shop either really but I myself had no desire for a spice rack.

In the example child B would be the working class. The working class provided the material and labour hence they should keep the fruit of their labour. This doesn't happen because the capitalist class alienates the working class from the fruits of their labour. Child C would the lumpenproles and Child A would be the aristocracy. There isn't really a child equivalent for the capitalist class, but it would sound something like this: I own the machines that were used to make the flute, therefore the flute belongs to me.
>>730481512
Marxism isn't just about the state redistributing wealth

>>730479313
A should get it because she is the only one who can currently play it.
B is capitalist bourgeoisie scum who is only interested in profit but they are posing as the prolateriat.
C is a poorfag.
if B really wants another one, she can just make one, she clearly knows how. she might even be so kind as to give the poorfag lessons so he can learn to make one himself, that way he can work under her as an apprentice and he won't be a poorfag anymore. he could git gud and open his own shop as a competitor and become a capitalist, too, but B wouldn't like that so she's probably going to enslave him for 40 years and then find a way to try and deny his healthcare and retirement benefits.

Child A doesn't just get the flute, she deserves it.

Child A will get the flute, even by force if necessary.

Because Child A is exceptional.

The flute only becomes meaningful when Child A's lips touches its mouthpiece.

It's not about being “anti-poor” or “anti-effort.”

It’s about being pro-meaning.

You GIVE meaning to something, that thing doesn't come with meaning on its own.

The flute's music will bless the ears of all the children because Child A was allowed to play it.

It doesn't work as a Marxism analogy because the issue that Marx was writing about doesn't map on to B's situation at all. The capitalist argument for the worker not owning the product is that the capitalist owns and provides the tools and materials, and that the worker provides labour for which he is compensated not with the product, but with money (that happens to be of lesser value than the product). The labour alone could not possibly create the product, the labour is part of the process and the right to it is purchased. B can't be taken as analogous to the situation.
>>
>>730479313
B should not have it taken away without being given fair compensation. Ideally A should buy it from her, then form a duo with C who sings along with her playing on a street corner for money. Making back the money spent on the flute and any extra can be split between them, this will also allow C to be less poor

No, just seemingly non-standard logic because of deliberate gaps that you failed to fill.
You argue for A because they know how to use it. I just used that argument for your coin, give it up buddy.
As for the lying, the point was if B made a new instrument nobody knew how to play there will inevitably be someone willing to say they do to try and get it in the dispute.

As for B lying, if they were they will be called out on it by whoever did make it and they'd try to prove it. People realy don't like it when somebody lies to try and take credit for their efforts. Where as A's case is an intangible claim being made and not so easily disproven.

That's still retarded, because in that situation person with money gets the item, as long as the money satisfies the person who constructed it, if not, then the person who constructed it owns it.
Person who provided the material has no ownership, unless the deal for providing material was the ownership to the product. If he just gave out the material for free then that's his fault.
Person who can actually play it has nothing to do with the ownership so that's out of the question, he's completely irrelevant.

Anon, if B makes an instrument no one knows how to play we could just dare A to play it, which would disprove any claims of skill. Unless A learns any instrument instantly, in which case B should make more random shit for us to give to A.

>As for B lying, if they were they will be called out on it by whoever did make it and they'd try to prove it.

>It doesn't work as a Marxism analogy because the issue that Marx was writing about doesn't map on to B's situation at all.
It maps if you think in terms of economic classes instead of individuals. B as an individual didn't make the tools and materials, but B as a class of individuals that have a certain relationship to the means of production did.
Anyway I think OP's pic is kinda dumb and doesn't really work well as a thought experiment.

The working class doesn't provide the materials. The boss buys them and the working class only provides the labor, you don't have to provide your own iron to the factory, your boss does.
I this case, child B provided both materials and labor, so unless she was paid to do it by someone, it's hers.

Not the same situation, child B has, as far as we know, zero skill with the flute, so it's useless with her. I, on the other hand, can use my computer to argue over stupid situations on an anonymous board, which i think is far from useless.

Also you don't want my computer, it takes 10 minutes to turn on. You should give yours to me.

B is very clearly the right answer, despite raising the question of "why'd she even make it to begin with." I can only assume she intends to practice.

If there's no existing agreement between the material provider (D) and the flute maker (B), you can just assume the B stole the materials, and that makes the choice easy.

1. child C could learn to play it.
2. child C could sell it for a profit.
3. child C could keep it as a memento and have something of sentimental value.
4. child C could learn to reverse engineer it and understand how it functions, which would aid them in the process of learning to make and sell them as part of a craft. all of this also applies to B, but one can assume that B has already had the opportunity to learn to play it, and since they already know how to make it, they most certainly have produced exquisite models that they keep just for themselves. child A is not interested in learning to make them, child A's interest isn't economic in an immediate sense; they love the flute for the tones it produces. that child A might use it in their own craftsmanship and turn a profit is somewhat inconsequential, because we cannot assume that child A's use case is economic in nature.

not projecting, I'm reading between the lines and extrapolating. now, if we assume that it was B's sole labor by themselves, a single craftsman, and she lives by the sweat of her brow, then that is a different scenario entirely to some fatcat "entrepreneur" posing as the former and claiming ownership of the flute. surely you understand and are not pretending to be retarded, yes?

if B isn't some capitalist swine and is a humble laborer who made the flute that they'll sell at a fair price for the sake of their daily bread, then they have a stronger case for ownership of the flute. in any case, B's effort would be worthless without A's desire to own the flute, and so in some way, B is acting like they're entitled to the fruit of industry, which is some bullshit.

Everyone wants to talk about taking but no one wants to create. As always the insipid predator takes and takes and is left starving when the prey finally dries up.
To stop the predator the only options prey have are to flee or kill, and they often lack the sufficient tools to do so. This is because the predator specializes in taking what others have.

Define "ability to play the flute". That's arguably a subjective, arbitrary floor.

The fact that I have the flute means that B made the flute for me, likely because she works for me.
Therefore, the flute isn't her property, it's the property of the business, and therefore I can sell the fruit to either C or A, depending on which give me their money first.

What's the chain of custody here? That's the important part. We know it started with B. But did B sell it or give it away as a gift at any point? Did B give it to A temporarily, to test it? Did C steal it? From B, or from A?

This is a problem that's unsolvable for lack of context. There is a definitive moral answer here, but we're arbitrarily deprived of the context necessary to come to an informed conclusion.

Maybe B gave the flute away to A, then regretted not selling it, so she's trying to renege on the deal. Maybe A has a fundamentally flawed understanding of a deal that was struck with B.
Maybe one of them lost the flute in a public place for a time before it was found by C who claimed it as unowned property.
We don't know. All three of them could have a valid claim on the flute based on what happened before we come upon their quarrel over its ownership.

Child A is entitled. She believes her gift grants her the right to express it. It does not.

Child B is, very simply, the rightful owner. She created the flute and shall do as she pleases with it. Be it selling, playing, or nothing; it is her flute.

Child C is trying to cope with hardship. Unfortunately for him that does not give him the right to take what is others. A flute is also not the only thing that can improve his life, he should find other things to occupy his time.

You give the flute to C, who sells it to A in order to be a step closer to escaping poverty. A plays the flute for an ever-growing audience, perfecting her technique until she discovers a small design flaw that prevents her mastery from growing further. A gives the flute back to B, so that she can refine it, giving B the best thing an artisan can hope for: constructive criticism and a chance to improve her craft. The resources that B needs to better the flute come from C, who uses what little money he gets from A in wise investments and networking.

The cycle repeats until C is the richest kid on earth, A the best flute player and B the best flute maker. The rich C will not forget his humble origins and will go on to finance and promote both B's flute-making workshop A's flute concerts. The 3 kids remain good friends for life.

yeah but why do you care what's right when you have the opportunity to make the world a better place? and well, that can become a very dangerous line of reasoning to follow to its natural conclusion, so I'll just add the caveat that you should only do this when you think it results in a net positive for everyone involved, without undue harm to perhaps anyone but yourself, because only you can consent to your own harm.

it's like, if I buy a cheeseburger, but step away for a minute to speak to the cashier about my fucking fries, and when I look away I see some little swindler stealing my food, I might initially be angry about it, because it'd be my right. I paid for that food, it's fucking MINE. but if I later learn that the little street urchin is starving and he's like
>please mister I'm so hungry just give me anything to eat
my tune suddenly might change because, being a not shitty person, would recognize that the kid probably needs it more than I do at that moment in time. you don't always have to act like this - especially when it's your wife and she's trying to convince you that cuckoldry is worthwhile - but sometimes it's a noble thing to take an L to better someone else's station in life. in the case of A, she's most poised to make use of the goddamned flute, so if I made it and it was between giving it to A or C, I'd probably give it to her first so I can hear the extent of her talent.

1. get big mad about it and try to track them down to the ends of the earth to get your revenge and your bike back
2. let it go because it's just a physical thing and it's not like you can't just get another one
so what are you going to do? most people will be pissed for a while but then let it go because there's nothing you can do, unless you see that nigger walking down the street with your bike, but that's a different store. assuming the thief is smart, you'll never see the damn thing again.

I say we propose a sharing scheme:
A can borrow the flute, with her house as collateral, for a period of no more than three days. C can apply, but may be declined, to borrow the aforementioned flute at 90% interest for 10 years, starting at a $60,000 deposit. B?

Sen faults Rawls for overemphasizing institutions as guarantors of justice and not considering the effects of human behaviour on the institutions' ability to maintain a just society. Sen believes Rawls understates the difficulty in getting everyone in society to adhere to the norms of a just society. He also claims that Rawls' position that there be only one possible outcome of the reflective equilibrium behind the veil of ignorance is misguided.

It really doesn't. Is it someone's? Yes? Are they willing to part with it whatever reason you give them? No? It stays theirs. The apartment is the landowner's even if they stay the nights somewhere else and if person A got a place, but will use it as housing instead and can afford it or if person B will too use it for housing, but is poor and homeless. It stays the owner's no matter the situation. The bread's the baker's even if Aladdin or those homeless kids could use it and even for a good and "moral" cause. The guards were right to chase him all along while he just sang "One Jump Ahead" and jumped from a high place to end-up unharmed on the ground and they ended-up neck-deep in Crazy Hakim's Fertailizer.
Showed those law enforcers what's what.
Stealing is still stealing. No matter why you do it. The reason might make you more sympathetic, but it won't make you right.

No anon. Its a very simple thought experiment. There is no reason to lie or convey false information without that being stated as part of the premise.

>>730486576
Tell me, lying anon, what can be gained by adding deception to the equation? The problem is based around 3 children giving reasons as to why they should get the flute, the reasons being categorized as "will make the best use of it", "has created it" and "will be happier with it", with you choosing which you value the most. Adding lying into the mix is worthless. Lets say child A is lying... now what? What is her true deal? We dont know, deductive reasoning is not part of the scenario nor does it enhance it. Nothing can be gained by this.

If child B made the flute as a job for child D, irregardless of him being the owner of all tools and flutemaking methods, then it's child D's flute, and people should pay if they want it.

Power supposedly comes from the people; our supposedly democratically created property laws, supposedly enforced by the highest power in the area, state that theft is wrong.

I like how so many anons here struggle with this, but this is a very common example used to explain political perspectives. The capitalist would argue that Child A should get the flute (capital), because she's the only one who can make use of it. The libertarian thinks child B should have the flute, because it was child B that produced the flute and she owns it by virtue of being its creator (also, I guess naturalists would also argue this point). And of course, the economic socialist would argue that child C should get the flute, because child B is the one worst off of the three. Though I am a liberalist, I will defend the economic socialist in this instance because an economic socialist would only give the flute to child C if, and only if, the flute would actually generate some kind of way out of the poverty. Seeing as child C can't play the flute, they can neither find happiness nor economic reprieve from it, and so the economic socialist would probably end up giving it to child B. The real example of the three children and the flute is quite a bit longer than this picture.

The actual experiment used 3 children as an example because the experimenter believes Children have strong sense of justice and perfectly embodied human nature, not whatever this is. It, however, was also used to demonstrate that the idea of justice doesn't address inequality

You do not know the intentions or ability of others without built up experience. This is what I believed to be an incredibly simple observation. I don't immediately trust the word of people I don't know.
If I happened on this scenario walking the street I wouldn't think of "Ah yes child A is better poised to benefit from the flute and share with others her gift yada yada". I would think that child B seems to be the owner so then I would give it to her.
Are you a sucker that believes whatever anyone says? I hope not. You don't know the truth of every scenario and I tried to show that extremely simple fact to you.

>>730487096
Yup. But people have an easier time to understand principles if the example gives a less syllable intensive workout.

There's no reason to introduce unnecessary friction for where we've determined the flute should go

The glaring flaw being the assumption that it SHOULD address inequality
Why should it? Does inequality need to be addressed?

Anon... are you well? Are you trying to generate engagement by adding needless and unproductive variables to this simple situation? Do you truly believe this fictional, straightforward scenario is hiding some sort of deception?

Would you rather people be dead, or happy, at the very least complacent.
No matter how power hungry or oonga boonga anyone is, nobody wants everyone dead.

A good way to flesh out your thoughts is to put it out there with real people. Your unwillingness to engage with it is fine. If you believe there is nothing to gain with further discussion then don't reply. Unless your own engagement farming is the goal.

Not him but given that it literally tells you who owns the flute, yes. The flute is Child B's property.
Let me reiterate, since you don't seem to understand.
Child B.
Owns the flute.
Child. B. Owns the flute. The image says so.
Would you mind explaining to me how distracting the reader from that fact would NOT be deceiving him?
>>
>>730487506
Why does Child C's lack of a flute need to be addressed?
>>
>>730487529
Your thoughts, those being to apply the possibility of lies to this scenario, lead to a dead end, as no conclusion can be made without adding more variables which entirely miss the point of the scenario. You're not being smart or thoughtfull by applying so called "real people logic" to these personas, you're just making it impossible to construct any proper logic and instead replacing by made up assumptions.

What's the purpose of respecting property if that prevents the observable best outcome?
>>
>>730487532
All it says is child B made the flute, doesnt say she owns it, making something is not the same as ownership. Regardless, it is not deception to have each child present their reasons.
>>
>>730487686
I guess a disingenuous faggot like him is easier to engage with than a simple statement of fact (>>730487532).
Resort to all your politicians, economics, philosophers, fallacies and/or fallacy calling, you all miss that simple deception at play in this prompt. Willingly or ignorantly, it doesn't matter. You've all elevated yourselves above the truth.

If your philosophy crumbles the milliseconds into it's induction then of course it doesn't work.
Nobody is going to trust the retard who kills everyone on sight and no matter how much he wants it as some point the MMR dude gets tired of fighting.
>>
>>730487756
Because if you don't respect property then you have no way of ensuring the flute remains A's property and securing the desired outcome.

These words imply child B had the flute at some point, obviously. We have the flute now. Do we own it?
>>
>>730487532
In any case it's not a problem of ownership, the question is who we will give it too. If we feel like giving it to someone who doesnt have any claim of ownership, we might aswell. The problem isnt about finding the original owner after all.

>>730484785
One flute to rule them all
One flute to find them
One flute to bring them all
And in the darkness bind them

>>730487824
There's no reason the mechanisms which ensure A keeps the flute because it's her property couldn't ensure A keeps the flute because it's the best outcome, so why wouldn't we just do that?
>>
>>730487686
>no conclusion can be made
The conclusion that in the absence of all knowing truth, or prior experience, a judgement cannot be made as to the value added to the other children as opposed to defaulting to judgement based on ownership rights.

It's like pulling teeth with you. I already said this before. I don't give a shit about the base premise of the hypothetical. Engage or don't with my own version. I'm not forcing you to reply and seethe about how it's "impossible to construct logic".
Disagree, agree, or abstain. Don't whine and complain like a child or woman.

I'm glad you've understood this much, but it's phrased "who WOULD you give the flute to?". This is by design to see if they can goad retards like (You) into red herrings, even if an answer (who actually owns the flute) is already given to you. So congratulations, you've been tricked.

I might have been tricked too effectively because i got no idea what point you're making.
