I've always hated being with my little brothers whenever they are in a supermarket. They always spend so much time in the candy isle, trying to choose a candy to buy.
But it wasn't until just a little while ago that I realized something.
While watching them, I saw the reason that they have to take so long. As a direct result of there being so many different kinds of candy to choose from, they were completely confused. It almost seems like they feel totally overwhelmed. I think part of the time they spend looking at the shelves is spent just calming themselves down and adjusting their eyes to focus on one thing at a time.
And in the end, they just end up saying, "I don't know what to get! I'll just get this one."
"Whatever," I say.
And there it is. de Zengotita strikes again.
My brothers don't even know what they want anymore because they can't even focus on anything. It's almost like, not only do we become indifferent because there are so many options, but also because we just get so confused with ourselves that we end up forgetting exactly what you want.
Just watching them trying to choose makes me feel a little overwhelmed.

You know what's funny though? We have all of these options for unimportant things, but when it comes to President of the United States of America (the job, not the band) we have so few.
Reminds me of my little brother. I brought this up in class with his own toys, and it just weirds me out. He gets one toy, and then the next day he's trying to get another one. It's like he's in the candy aisle, and intead of trying to just one, he decides he won't have to pick and choose because he knows he'll eventually get all of them, until they make new ones.
Like candy, the toys are never really filling. It just leaves you wanting more.
This is a tanget. I REALLY should sleep.
Nice job Gutlerner address a gigantic problem equating it with the same complexity of making candies.
ONE MAJOR DIFFERENCE (seen from the perspective of those who control the means of production in the respective fields)
In candy more possibilities, highest efficiency of sell per person.
In President candidacy, less possibilities highest efficiency of resources.
Hurray now I can attend class when I am awake.
