The Flood / Re: Ask a guy who studies economics anything« on: June 12, 2015, 10:58:12 PM »what is your personal solution to the prisoner's dilemmaIf I were one of the prisoners? Nash equilibrium suggests I should defect, but Pareto efficiency would have me co-operate. Actual prisoners tend to be highly co-operative when actually posed with the dilemma, but the model itself (if I understand it correctly; game theory isn't my strong point) overlooks a number of behavioural biases. They may well have more to gain by defecting in terms of the rewards in front of them (cigarettes, when actually studied) but being known as a snitch in such a culture is sure way to get got so I'd say they acted rationally. Were I doing it, however, I'd probably defect. Simply because I'm ambitious to a fault. 4965

My parents are dolts, and even the smartest among my friends have no grasp of economics. Although I do wander onto r/economics, occasionally. It's a decent sub-reddit and the mods are actual economists so there's some good discussion. 4967

The guy's a fucking hack, and he should've stuck to linguistics. And yeah, he knows his political science, but he doesn't know economics. Chomsky's not a man for solutions, unless his one solution is to do exactly what Chavez did and get to the point where even being a massive oil producer will not help your economy. Chomsky's entire spiel is that the human race is so fucked, and people too stupid to realise the "propaganda" around them, that his fans need do nothing but buy his books and attend his speeches. 4972
