Help! Somebody call Sartre!!
Steven E. Landsburg says we shouldn’t vote … you know, because one person alone doesn't really matter. I’m trying really hard to believe that his column is an exercise in dramatic irony, but I think I’m failing.
If I weren’t so lazy, I’d get some statistics on voter turnout and send them to him. Also, I’d do an exponential analysis of what would happen if I influenced two people to vote my way … and they in turn influenced two people … and so on …
I guess I shouldn't be too hard on him, though, since he appears to be having an existential crisis.
UPDATE:
Wait ... Maybe Steve's just trying to steal the stoned-slacker audience from Jon Stewart.
