Can someone be held accountable/responsible for a crime that they do not have complete control over? I agree that punishment is sometime necessary to protect the rest of society, but am curious if that punishment should be considered in the context of being morally responsible. <br><br>Accountability/Responsibility are tied to the idea of praise/blame, reward/punishment. From a moral standpoint, should someone be viewed as culpable for actions that they don’t have complete control over?
