The question of free will seems so obvious as to be a complete waste of time. Everyone will always act as though they have free will, & the only time they don't is in an effort to escape the cosequences of something they have already done.

Either we have free will & are responsible for our actions, which means we can improve life & make the world better, or we don't which means nothing matters at all & there isn't even any point in arguing about it. The act of arguing about something implies a belief that you can change someone's mind, if there is no free will then that would be a silly endeavor.

"There's no free will" is one of those self exploding positions, like arguing might makes right, if you really thought that you wouldn't waste time arguing.

Perhaps the problem is desire.
