Wolf Singer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf_Singer
Singer also demands that the lack of free will must have consequences for our conceptions of guilt and punishment: if no one can decide freely from a scientific point of view, it is not useful to make people responsible for their actions. Socially intolerable persons would have to be "locked away" and "subjected to specific educational programs"

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - US President Donald Trump told reporters at the White House that the United States, Russia and China should stop spending on weapons and invest toward long-term peace.
"Between Russia, China and us, we're all making hundreds of billions of dollars worth of weapons, including nuclear, which is ridiculous," Trump said on Thursday. "I think it's much better if we all got together and didn't make these weapons… those three countries I think can come together and stop the spending and spend on things that are more productive toward long term peace."
Chinese Vice Premiere Liu He, who was present at the White House, said he agreed with Trump's idea.
