> If we're voting on dinner [...] That doesn't replicate the conditions of national elections which are monopolistic and repeated. You can't opt to participate in a different group and you have to play all your games with the same rules - if you refuse to eat at F-grade restaurants you may end up starving. In "real" elections you end up without the ability to set those convenient limits consistently or usefully.
