Moral Responsibilty.
Determinists say that if we have no control over what happens then technically we aren't responsible for what happens.
So basically, if someone murders another person, he can't really be help accountable because he was destined to do the crime.

No, Philosophers who debate about the issue of Free-will are either compatibilists and incompatibilists. The incompatibilist argue that free-will and determinism are incompatible. In this one there is an argument between Libertarians (those who support freewill) and the Determinists (those who are against it). The Compatibilists are people who believe that free-will and determinism are somehow reconcilable.

The word argument typically means a disagreement. However, an argument can also be a statement for or against an action. "The mayor made a strong argument against raising the sales tax."
He's not literally underground- it's just a metaphor for the narrator's descent into ennui and apathy. It's also representative of Dostoevsky's negative argument to validate free will against determinism. But most importantly- it's because he doesn't have a shovel.
