33. @#32 - A lot of things are "normal"
That doesn't mean that they're right and good. That's the old "everybody's doing it" argument. A logical fallacy.
While that certainly is "normal" I disagree that it's the way it should be. It goes against the principles of private property and free-market economics.
If I've got a competent, licensed bus driver, and I pay him his wages, and I buy a bus, with private money, I should be able to use that bus in whatever business fashion I choose subject to some reasonable laws like not driving into pedestrians/impeding traffic and whatnot.
If I choose to lose business by not doing business with the IDF, that should be a respected right. A lot of the ultra-orthodox feel that way you know.
