"Well one million wouldn't really change that much, you still need a job etc. With 100 million you can easily live off the interest. 100 randoms out of 7 billion people.... I'm ok with this " Why wouldn’t 1 million be enough. Where we live you could buy four fairly decent houses live in one rent three out would be easy way to live reasonably comfortably without work | |||

"I like the honest answers, I didn’t think anyone would admit to it Shame its strangers if I could pick there are 4 people I'd choose without batting an eyelid lol" Haha I was just thinking that. But what about a stranger that's famous for doing bad things. So for example - press the button and that Korean Dictator bloke would die. I dont know him - so he's a stranger. I'd be a millionaire - winner winner | |||

"If you could press a button and receive a million pounds, but one stranger would die, would you press the button? And if so, how many times?" I couldn’t as that stranger could be a child for all I’d know, or someone totally innocent and decent. Pick someone to die for a million, that’s certainly testing my liberal sensibilities to the max I have also seen the film | |||

Yes most certainly many many times if the stranger was any of these Rapist Pedo Murderer Terrorist " Everyone of us is 3 these things, one I cannot find an example for: Rapist - animals inseminated without consent, animals in captivity for us to see & cos we killed their homes. Murderer - plants, animals, fish, pollution, animals in medicine Terrorist - deforestation, dams, caged animals, poaching, mining especially cobalt (it is in every phone), Amazon (world hacker & privacy violator) Lots of things in our everyday lives, alot of things we take for granted are detrimental in other places of the world. | |||

Just my opinion If it helps, you can argue that their death was a fixed event, whether you pressed the button or not they were going to die anyway, you're simply the method not the cause. A painless death by magic button might be kinder than what was in store for them. What a load of bull. The quest was you’d directly kill them. I agree it's a total self rationalisation, but people can convince themselves all sorts of crazy things if they want to do something badly enough. Exactly, it’s like the film for instance “ purge” would you do that ? Me personally wouldn’t ever wish death on anyone, let alone be personally responsible for their death. Purge is the movie where one night a year all crime is legal? Then no. Most laws I'm in favour of, and although murder is obviously a crime it's very different being asked to push a button to going outside and shooting someone. Also it's a hypothetical scenario. 99 times out of 100 everyone on here (including me) who said yes wont push the button So your original answer was “ hypothetical “ ?you wouldn’t really do it ? " Put me in front of the button and we can both find out. | |||

"I won't give a number, but I would lots & lots, why? Because I'm a naturist. The money I would put towards changing a lot of things mainly towards major conservation of all areas of the world & re-wild many areas that would help re-generate soil, prevent landslides (give me trees & that damn A82! Rocks, idiots), help regulate the climates temperature (yes trees cool cities much better than a/c ever will & carbon catching ), drastically reduce fishing & outlaw plastic across the globe. I get as many as I like, right? I reconsidered my response and decided to join you on button pushing side by side. As we won’t be strangers anymore guess we are good to go " Yes, we would there's lots to do & with no oil there are no machines so hands needed to plant & farm again, all would be fairly local unless you've got a port & sailing ship We've still learned alot of things from the past, like take vit c on long voyages, cats for rodent control etc. I am definitely born in the wrong millennia.

"I'd press that button like I was playing the 80s arcade game Decathlon...... (but in reality 1 would probably do me) Seriously would you actually press a button to get rid of one person ? If you read through enough of the answers above, plenty would, so yep..... I could also be the stranger and looks like there's plenty here would wipe me out too .. But I asked you randomly. Personally I don’t hate anyone enough to want them to die. And I’d also never ever play god as I believe in karma , so I’ve never had a million pounds and if it meant some innocent person died for me to gain something I’ve not earned or deserved I’d pass. Just my opinion If it helps, you can argue that their death was a fixed event, whether you pressed the button or not they were going to die anyway, you're simply the method not the cause.

"Well one million wouldn't really change that much, you still need a job etc. With 100 million you can easily live off the interest. 100 randoms out of 7 billion people.... I'm ok with this Why wouldn’t 1 million be enough. Where we live you could buy four fairly decent houses live in one rent three out would be easy way to live reasonably comfortably without work Good point, I have a very london centric view point, where 1 million might not even buy you a 1 bedroom flat in a dodgy neighbourhood Aye up where I am, £1million would last aaaaaaages" In London it really wouldn't. For a three bed house in the area we live in you are looking at the very least £450,000 and that's just a very average house. | |||

"What if that 1 person turned out to be your wife or husband, or 1 of your kids?" It's a stranger so you'd have to have a pretty messed up personal life for it to be your wife or kids. Just messing, I know what you mean. If this is serious then there are some serious fucked up people on here. If I turned up at there houses and murdered their families I doubt they would sympathise with me when I tell them it's OK, I got paid a million pound for each life. | |||

"If you could press a button and receive a million pounds, but one stranger would die, would you press the button? And if so, how many times?" Only if it then allowed you to pick your stranger. Happily press it all day long to remove the evil from the planet. Otherwise no, wouldn't want to remove anyone else it may be one of the sexy people from fab | |||
