Well-reasoned arguments never change the minds of anyone. Long-held beliefs and prejudices will always win out. I'm talking about you, Enrico, and me, too. People only change their minds on this type of issue when confronted with life-changing circumstances. The only ones who do change their minds on something, based on rational, well-reasoned arguments is the *occasional* policy-maker. A pure politician will change his mind when it is politically expedient.
