    • He did not make that money, he should not get the credit for having said money.

    • Simple, it's not his wallet, and now the poor owner is out of $50 while the thief is $50 richer.

    • Stealing is an unnecessary, malicious act that only hurts the victims of it.

    • He should not have what is not his.

    • He should have made the money himself.

    • His effort spent stealing $50 did not help him at all in the long run, he could've spent that effort making the money himself.

    • He will never own up to taking it from the owner or reveal his identity.

     You are in your social studies class and the teacher pairs you up for a project. You are paired with the classmate notorious for being a "free rider", A.K.A. a person who never does his fair share of the work. How do you handle your partnership?

    • Do your proposed part of the project and tell your teacher if he does not do his half of the work.

    • Try your hardest to work with the person and keep a positive attitude. If he refuses to do his half of the work, so be it. It's not worth the conflict.

    • Reason with him, and explain to him that it's not fair for you to do all of the work, hoping he will do his half.

    • Do the entire project. You know you won't get any help from him, so you just take matters into your own hands.

    • Give him no choice. Take charge and delegate tasks between the both of you. Persist and badger him until his half is done.

    • Vow to finish the project even if he doesn't do his half. You have to keep up your GPA, and it's not your fault that he's unmotivated.

    • Tell him that he needs to do his half, and that you know his reputation.

    • Do the entire project by yourself to prove that you didn't need help from someone like him anyway.
