True but the odds do show that you're more likely to die from cancer..

[Braden]

that's a really hard question.
i would probably do it once and then just leave it at that
and face the consequences

A lot of people would take that risk. The temptation of money is too much for some to ignore. If they were unlucky and killed someone on the first push, it would be a very big price to pay for a measly Ł1,000,000.

If it's measly why press the button and run the risk of killing somebody in the first place? And don't forget, you'll never know if someones croaked or not.

[Braden]

it could even be someone like the queen or lady gaga who gets killed

If I had pressed the button and my mother had died, that 1mil would mean nothing to me anymore. No amount of money could tempt me to risk the life of my family. Strangers on the other hand...

I think I would prefer not knowing if someone had died.

In a sense, you do know them. You know of their existence. They do not count.

It would play on your mind and tarnish your ability to spend the money.... you have a conscience, I know you do darling.

Perhaps. This is all hypothetical anyway. No one knows for sure how they'd feel.

I like arguing with you too.

[andyman]

Press the button.. Nobody will die with 1/10,000 odds.

Spend the money on your family, donate to needy people..

C'mon take the chance..

[Enid]

That is another way to look at it, I suppose.

At the possible expense of one life, you could give others a better one.

But how can you look at your loved ones or yourself afterwards? How can you teach your children to value life and be compassionate towards others?

[Novo]

How would the people die?

A painful death or a quick and Painless one

Quick and painless. Removed like they had never existed in the first place.

I.. don't know. Those questions have me stumped to be honest.

It will teach them power! And lust for power is good.. You're an American! Be the best..

[bronaaaa]

I might once..but I think I'd be too chicken

[Enid]

That's alright. Has nothing to do with bravery.

[GypsyGoth]

I think I'd push it... actually I'm not so sure. I don't like hurting people, so I guess I wouldn't risk peoples' lives. I can be greedy and mean spirited sometimes but to risk killing loved ones is too much of a price.
