The Principle of Sufficient Automatism

In my book Incognito, I proposed what I call the principle of sufficient automatism. This arises simply from understanding that free will is only a small factor riding on top of enormous automated machinery. Biological explanation does not equal excal patient, which is letting people off the hook. Societies will always need to get bad actors off the streets. We will not abandon punishment, but we can refine the way we punish.
