Lifeboat Ethics - Garrett Hardin

 In the essay, Hardin uses "lifeboat" as a metaphor to describes resource distribution. His argument was interesting, but I don't agree with Hardin.

 If our problem is really about survive on the ocean, I think his solution could probably worked. But we are talking about resource distribution, which directly linked with real human and nations. I don't think that just limiting distribution would solve the problem.  To solve this, we need to think about real people, study about various causes and effects, and come up real solution with long-term view.
