QUOTE: Good decisions are good decisions. — Michael Josephson
They are good in a practical sense — that is, effective — and they are good in a moral sense — that is, ethical.

Wow. That’s deep. What’s next? ‘Bad decisions are bad decisions’? You could do a whole series! ‘Dark nights are dark nights’, ‘Ice is cold’, ‘The sun is hot’.
The concept is that good decisions are not merely pragmatically good decisions but morally good decisions as well. perhaps the quote is obtuse the the concept is important.
Better to describe the conditions and characteristics of a ‘good decision’ and just what set of moral/ethical guidelines you are using. Some people think murdering doctors is ‘moral’ because the doctor is performing legal procedures the killer doesn’t like.
Wow it’s so easy to be a critic isn’t it! Perhaps you guys are missing the point of making simple, and short statements….for certain people they make an impact. They are meant to sit with!

It’s me, sorry
It’s as bad as ‘enough is enough’.
