False equivalence. That's a one time scenario. My son is able to provide this as a service.

A service based solely on happenstance


Think of this as my son having the profession of "weather controller"

He has a monopoly on it and can set his own rates without competition

Some people grow up to be doctors, my son grew up to control the weather

They took years of training and put themselves into 6 figure debts to develop the skills needed to excel at those professions which is why they are paid more for that service

They don't just extort people for acts of God

You won't see a heart surgeon up the price of surgery by 20 million because the patient can't reach another surgeon in time


Should he be forced to perform his services completely unpaid for? Would you turn my son into some kind of weather manipulation slave?

Now you're strawnanning

You're reminding me of those teens who watched a man drown, laughing at him and mocking him as he died a while back who everyone hated

You're now implying anyone who was upset they didn't help him was advocating for slavery
