A couple of interesting posts there rhino and North

If people really bounce out of bed and really push themselves it's amazing what they can achieve

An MRI, I'd bet, would demonstrate that you are hard-wired to be goal oriented long before you think you've consciously decided to be...

Its like asking people why always they feel optimistic... They can't really explain it... They just are...

Or an even stupider question.... Asking a centenarian the secret to a long life... Some might put it down to a diet of sherry and prunes..

We don't know why we fundamentally feel the way we do, because it wells up from the subconscious and its only when all the chemicals are in place that we become consciously aware of our state... How we got there? genes, epigenes, nuture, life events, what happened years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes and seconds ago...

This is true north but it is also true
That the leader of a chimpanzee troop usually has very good social connections within the troop
He looks after the females and he's nice to the children

And its also true that subordinates are always looking for his weaknesses to exploit...

As Goodall observed, the alpha has only to get sick and he better watch his back (and his harem!)

There's a paradox though in your criticism of trump as a fat lazy womanizing business man

Do you know how many fat lazy womanizing businessman there are
Literally throughout the world tens of millions

So if that's all he was
He would have just retired to his resort
Kept a low profile
And done what millions of businessman in Japan China Saudi Arabia Dubai Europe and America do
Pleasured themselves

Instead he put his head up above the parapet
And it has made pleasuring himself infinitely more difficult
So I'm sorry but a criticism of trump based on that narrative is not going to fly

There isn't any...

But in a large group, like humans can maintain, there's plenty of capacity for society to survive with many doing f*ck all...

Price's Law... The square root of the total number of workers do 50% of the work

Of 100 workers, 10 do 50% of the work...

To run that down...

Of the remaining 90 , 9.5 do 25% of the total work

Of the 80.5, 9 do 12.5% of the total work

Of the 72.5, 8.5 do 6.25% of the total work

Of the 64, 8 do 3% of the work

Of the 56, 7.5 do 1.5% of the work

If (the) Price is right, what exactly do the other approx 50% do?

Re: You Cant Put a Price on a Human Life.

how much is to much to save your kids horse boy?

What does that have to do with the topic?

everything.

If he's claiming there is a price on life, i want to know what the price is on his kids life

or does the rule only apply to those you don't know?

The adults are talking about a societal response not within a family, now back to the card table with the fairy bread ya dunce.

No one asked you ya farkwit.

The question was directed to horseboy. Now run along and go find some more toilet paper to hoard.

Are you hall monitor in Aussie's absence, telling people which posts they may and may not reply to?

Your question is puerile, but what we expect from a dullard like you.

Now back to the kids table.

you can respond, you just can't answer for horse boy

surely even that's not beyond even your limited capabilities of understanding?

Your question is not worth answering.

again, answering for horse boy

you can't really be that stupid can you?

These 3 seem to have their monthly cycles corresponding. Theyve been all over the forum picking fights and looking for attention today.

the only ones picking fights are you morons, I asked horseboy a simple question ... you morons are afraid to let him answer

I wonder why Smith wants to drag Aquas kids into the discussion?

Thats the general MO of that lot, no moral or ethical compass. North thinks its Autism, I dont. These types of people always put on a facade about being all for social justice and equal rights but disagree with them on any subject and the mask falls off. They must be right and thats it, they will use any means to try and convince themselves they are superior to the person who disagrees with them. Their egos depend on it and projection is part of their game. Logic or facts dont come into it when they enter their episodes. Look at John in the other thread, arguing for hours about something he could have found out about with a simple google, but he wont do it, it might prove him wrong and he couldnt have that. Pecca and Mothra display the same type of narcissistic histrionic personality types, thats why they tend to support each other, even when one blatantly lies the others will support each other.

no facade here dopey, just trying to see if you idiots stand by your own words or not. So far you're failing

This is true north but it is also true
That the leader of a chimpanzee troop usually has very good social connections within the troop
He looks after the females and he's nice to the children

If it was all about being the strongest and belting the subordinate chimps
then two or three subordinate chimps would just gang up on the tyrant and knock him off

Wolves also will fight and dominate each other
But when the inferior wolf submits the alpha wolf invite him back into the pack
After all the alpha wolf is going to need him when they co-operate in a hunt

So cooperation
Care of females
Care of infants
Care of subordinates

Is also hard wired

But only within the pack
It's why we are tribal to our core

Extending that to the whole of humanity is going to require people to transcend their inner chimp

To be quite honest I think you expect too much of people, humans relatively large brains have managed to help many of us transcend the animal kingdom to a degree and as Desmond Morris puts it, urbanised humans live in the equivalent of a human zoo. Caged animals do exhibit many of the traits that humans do when cooped up out of their natural range. Unfortunately the same ability to provide for every member of the tribe no matter your own ability to contribute or be a worthwhile member of the tribe has bred inherent weakness into the human race. 50,000 years ago if you were too dumb, slow or otherwise challenged you would not survive to pass your genetics on to the tribe, Darwins law would have wiped them out. Modern technology has changed this, we now have an extraordinary number of people in our society who just do not have the inherent mental capability to achieve much of anything. Fat Steve and Janeen would not have existed amongst our ancestors, they would not have survived.
