Who would you rather have in control of the nukes: people who don't care, or people who care a whole, whole, WHOLE LOT?
- alpha_squared 7y agoPeople who care _that_ much are also more prone to emotional reaction lacking thorough evaluation of a situation that impacted them personally. So, I'm actually really not sure. At least the ones who don't want to get in trouble are motivated by the fact that they are beholden to others in some fashion.
