Four years since the last election and all we've produced is a crook and an idiot. Now is as good a time as ever to question the very fabric of our political system.
Games lose their substance when reduced to two sides. Especially in social matters, black and white interpretations blur political discourse. And that's exactly what the two-party system brings to the table.
Explore the following thought for a moment.
You're in a closed room of say 12 people, with the only source of nutrition at your disposal. You're given the supplies during the night while everyone else sleeps, making you the most morally responsible person in the room. You get the food and it's your task to distribute it evenly among the other eleven people.
While you orchestrate the survival of your companions, they seek answers. "Where are we?" "Where's the food coming from?" And most importantly, "how do we get out of here?"
You're the only one with an elevated sense of reality, the only one with the resources and the one with the most information, but you still have no answers.
What do you do? Tell the truth? Let everyone know you're screwed? Make them fight over the food instead of accepting it as you've shared?
Or do you create a game? Establish a feeling of hope and feign the sense of choice?
The art lies in the balance between your greed and stopping people from cutting each other's throats.
What would you do?
