Initially, I was shooting for a neither party compromise. I don't ask her to do things she doesn't want and she doesn't ask me to do things I don't want.
This autarky situation, while feasable does not create higher potential gains. When each person does something they do not want in exchange for another person doing what they don't want, both parties are actually better off.

In my example, I cited an activity I don't like and an activity she doesn't like. While it is possible to survive with no compromise; it is rather stale and stagnant and limits opportunities for growth. When the people come together to trade these "dislikes", both parties are better off.

I highly value activity X and she highly values me assisting with activties A and B. The enjoyment/entertainment/etc I recieve from activity X is greater than the cost/frustration/etc I "pay" for activities A and B. And the cost/frustration/discomfort she "pays" for X is less than the enjoyment she recieves from me producing A & B. It's a simple marginal cost function to determine how many units of A&B equals a unit of X.

See how both partiers are better off my conceding??

The problem comes in enforcing the math. If the math says 5A + 5B = 1X, it doesn't translate to real life, and I realize that. But at what point does disequilibrium cause problems? I am not sure. I do know that explaining this to teh gf was not as fruitful as I anticipated.
just break up with her.

Yes it really does. But, I guess you could pray because he supposedly hears you. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif
He hears me whether he wants to or not. I got the batphone. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

 
is the refusal to drill more in the US some type of long term investment thing? Like we are waiting for all the rest of the oil in teh worl dto be used then we will have it all and be like the arabs later?
That would actually make some sense, but I think the stated reasons are that we luv trees.

I personally think we have dicked around with the energy issue for far too long and now we are going to be royally fvcked.

 
Actually Bush just passed a bill for more off shore drilling. The main thing about mainland drilling is it will either destroy habitats or it is costly to get to.
fvck the habitats issue, seriously. You can drill and preserve nature at the same time. Plus, the earth has a remarkable ability to heal itself. All is well.

 
TRILL!

Quoted for truth. Why preserve something that we won't even be able to afford to eat in three months?
