You are president. The debt ceiling will soon hit the limit without being increased. The opposing party controls Congress and is demanding a list of conditions that you find unacceptable, such as deep budget cuts to priorities and causes that you consider highly important. They are not willing to offer any concessions of their own in return. If the U.S. defaults on its debt (which has never happened before), the economic and societal consequences will be severe. Do you cave in to the demands? _Poll ([view on site](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/polls-only-no-discussion/953642/3327))_ ---

Do you ever engage in specific time-bounded short-term abstinence from enjoyable things? I’m not talking about overall religious strictures (like pork for Jews/Muslims) or allergies or general weight-loss diets, but rather things that are given up for a specific generally recognized period.

A malicious Q appears to you. He tells you whichever decision you make; you, your family and your closest friends will be spared. For everybody else though, he will either kill the best 10% of humanity or the worst 90%. No loopholes. What is “best” is extrapolated from your mainly subconscious internal ranking system from before the Q appeared and can’t be changed. If you defer it, the Q will eventually find someone and you, your friends and family will not be immune. _Poll ([view on site](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/polls-only-no-discussion/953642/3339))_ ---
