Does lying matter? Hilaria or Hillary lost a great deal of money because she lied, but does lying matter even if there is no fin

ancial loss? We often lie. Sometimes we get caught and other times we get away with it. Does lying matter only if we get caught? In “The Ring of the Gyges,” we were told that if we could get away with lying, cheating, stealing or murder, we would and the only reason we are honest is that we are forced on to the path or morality by the fear of punishment. Is this really the case? Are there good reasons for being honest individually as well as communally? In this writing assignment, I would like you to pick a philosopher and then help them to make the case for honesty or dishonest.
A very strong and controversial claim. (Strong means if you think lying is beneficial, state it. Please do not tell me it depends. This is not controversial and will not allow you to make a good argument.)
Evidence for your claim. This can either be your reasons, the philosopher, or a combination of both.
Counterexamples or opposition to your position.
A Rebuttal to the opposition.

Degger [83]

When PM Modi announced that Rs with the denomination of 500/- and 1000/- would cease to be the legal tender from 9th of Nov, the whole country was stunned. This decision caused sensation in the whole country. Social Media was flooded with messages and information. People started counting the trash they had accumulated for years legally or illegally.

Rumours became rife. Some tried to invest their dying currency in gold. Some contacted their near and dear ones in this miserable hour. People could get only Rs 4000/ of old denomination exchanged with the new one. Big lines became the order of the day.

Instead of getting shorter, these queues were getting longer with every passing day. The last date for the whole process was 30th of December. The persons could deposit the old cash worth Rs 2.5 lac till the said date.

The main objective of this move was to curb the black money, corruption and fake money menace. All the people but those who were indulged in malpractices welcomed the move. The whole opposition shook hand against this move under one pretence or the other. They called this decision a draconian law and wanted the govt to roll back it. Tirades were made to target the decision. Govt also carried out counter attack.
