Maybe there is a problem with homo economicus?[snip]
Perhaps some will be interested to hear that, on a different list, I have been following a thread which argues that we and chimpanzees are essentially equivalent (our genes are 99.44% the same -- good enough for Ivory soap...).
So, if you do not know already, be hereby apprised that there are PhDs out there who are asserting that "chimps R us", and that chimps should have equal rights to humans, etc./et al.
Economists have paltry imaginations: they are only able to reduce homo sapiens to homo economicus. "Real scientists" are able to reduce homo sapiens to homo chimpiens!
As John F Kennedy did not say in Berlin when he made the mikstake of confusing Berliners with "Berliners" (pastries):
Ich nich bin ein chimp!
