    Yes. Sometimes continuing to exist is irrational for them.

    While it is a permanent solution to a temporary problem, if the problem is effectively a no-win scenario, not playing the game may be the most palatable option in a slew of unfortunate ones.

          I'd just like to point out how priceless it is how someone who routinely used (...uses? dunno if you're still doing it) strip clubs and claimed to support women with a straight face by doing so uses the label "sexist" to anyone who disagrees with his far-left political views

              Is shoving a dollar in a G-string supporting women? Well I suppose it is. I'm with Che on this one. However I don't do that so likely I am not supporting women and am therefore a sexist.

              I can see where once I was blind.

                Well then, what's the problem? People who want to die are dead. People who want to get rich profited from the circumstances leading to those deaths. And the politicians were able to look statesmanlike by handing out big wads of cash.

                The only people who lost are those of us who weren't involved in the idiocy, but have to pay the bill.

                  When you join us in the world of rationality, I'll have a response for you.
                  Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

                      Woah, total cop-out.

                        I think I can help Che by covering his total cop-out with a rational reply since we are in complete agreement on this one.

                        Here goes...

                        You're male, you go to a strip club and get an erection staring at the womens breasts and form. As ones penis becomes erect the male brain shuts down and his wallet opens and he starts stuffing the hot chicks g-string with dollars the little woman can use to buy groceries, thereby supporting her.

                        Btw, I do not use 'little woman' in a derogatory sense. I use it like Che calling his bro his 'little brother'.

                            Why not? Haiti isn't an entrepreneur's paradise by any means and Mexico had a 70 year socialist dictatorship.

                              The OP overlooked mentioning Shay's Rebellion in western Massachusettes in the 1780's. It closed down courthouses in order to halt foreclosures.

                              The Articles of Conferderation had no provision whereby the central government could sent military aid to a State. This weakness was the final kick in the pants to the founders, leading to the adoption of the Constitution.
