theapportioner | Hmmm, "Prisoner's Dilemma"... sounds like some kinda kinky sex-play |

Royal Tenenbaum | Did OAO's older sibling leave their economics text open? Because I think he just opened up a random page, and wrote some shit in a feeble attempt to impress anyone that might give a shit. |

kellychaos | Backwards induction? Isn't something thats true, in general, true for the particular instances? Sounds like sound reasoning to me. |

The One and Only... | I don't think many women would let you try backwards induction without an engagement ring... |

theapportioner | Although I try to not objectify, I recognize the appeal in viewing certain attractive members of the opposite sex as "game". |

Anonymous | In regards to the game theory, I don't believe that violent video games promote violent behavior. I've been playing video games for years, and I haven't turned into a murderous thug. |

Game theory and economic implementation What do you guys think of the growing use of game theoretical tools within post-Chicago economics? For example, Prisoner's Dilemma is sometimes used to explain an entrepeneur's position within the market place. I think it's useful, but is severely limited within it's scope. Why? Well, for one thing, I am skeptical of any argument that makes it's basis on backwards induction, which many game theorists do to justify regulation. |
