Suppose Blue requires 100% of people to vote for Blue, otherwise everyone who pushes Blue dies. Are you still pushing Blue? Above what % do you start pushing Red instead of Blue?

My Grandparents: - lived in 1,000 square foot home - 5 kids, multiple kids in each room - 1 TV - 1 family car - no cable, cell phones - hand me down clothes for the kids - never ate out - 1 income, grandma didn’t work The problem isn’t that you can’t still do this. The problem is you don’t want to.
