2012 ELECTION

[Riotgear]

If I wanted to set up a system where the market relied on the perception of scarcity to function I'd worry about the fact that they must be a fairly good size group of people who have to be the have-nots. Otherwise I wouldn't have scarcity. I'd probably think it's be a pretty good idea to create a two or three party system that relied on combative dialog make it seem as if all parties wanted everyone to be ok but appeared to want to go about in different ways. Of course that would be counter intuitive because if everyone does end up being ok then I wouldn't have my have-nots.

I suppose if everyone thinks they have a vote I could probably keep this charade going for quite awhile. I guess it'd probably help to make the idea that hard work equals a high likelyhood of being ok part of the combative dialog.

I wonder how come everyone is always ok with the fact that any given 49% get screwed. Why that's practically half. Hmmm...I guess I just better hope I'm in the 51% of whatever we're voting on.
