{wiki=Ought_implies_can}

"Ought implies can" is a philosophical principle often associated with moral responsibility and ethics. The idea is that if someone has a moral obligation (or "ought") to perform a certain action, then it must be possible for them to perform that action (the "can"). In other words, if it is morally obligatory for a person to do something, then they must have the ability or capacity to do it. This principle has implications in discussions about moral responsibility.
