“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”
If you haven’t already voted, go to the polls today and vote. Be sure to follow these 4 steps:
- Check your voter registration card (or sample ballot) for the location of your designated polling site.
- Bring photo ID and proof of address.
- Get in-line before the polls close. Even if the polls close, as long as you are in-line you cannot be turned-away.
- Vote carefully – review your ballot for accuracy before turning it in.
It will be a great night when Obama wins!
Rational ignorance is a term most often found in economics, particularly public choice theory, but also used in other disciplines which study rationality and choice, including philosophy (epistemology) and game theory.
Ignorance about an issue is said to be “rational” when the cost of educating oneself about the issue sufficiently to make an informed decision can outweigh any potential benefit one could reasonably expect to gain from that decision, and so it would be irrational to waste time doing so. This has consequences for the quality of decisions made by large numbers of people, such as general elections, where the probability of any one vote changing the outcome is very small.
Interesting post
Yeah it sure will be great when NObama wins, especially for us future physicians who’s salaries will be cut in fractions and when we have 200K to pay back in student loans. Yeah universal healthcare sure sounds great.
Why isn’t Bob Barr on the poll?
Photo ID is not required, as stupid as that is.
Not required, but good to have in case of problems at the polling site.
Obama won, ready to pay tax fellows
