[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did you know that a lot of political science and economics research has been devoted to trying to figure out why people vote at all, because economic models of individual behavior indicate that it is not individually rational to vote? I guess your husband is economically rational. You, on the other hand, well... lol [/quote] NP but this is actually intriguing. Can you suggest some starting point to read about this for total laymen?[/quote] There is a lot of debate about this. [google] voting is economically irrational[/google] In general, being a good person is bad for the person being good, but good for others. Being good is only profitable if almost everyone else is good too. Cheaters usually win. Like many economic debates, it suffers from a presumption by some people that humans are or should be money maximizing robots, meat bags filled with biochemical soup.[/quote]
