You guys are posting in the wrong thread. This is the “no discussion” thread. Anyhow, back to the thread: You are just about to retire. You’ve got all your retirement plans ready to go, even the travel/vacation tickets bought, and in fact have already turned in your 2-week notice, when your boss (who had just presented you with a gold watch last week) suddenly summons you to his office,… _“Cough cough, \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_, some good unexpected news; our company has suddenly had demand explode just overnight, and we need your services even more at this time. We anticipate that growth and demand will climb for a long while to come. I know you were planning to retire right now, but we would be willing to pay you 4x your current salary per year, for each additional year that you are willing to stay on.”_ _Poll ([view on site](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/polls-only-no-discussion/953642/5212))_ ---

You live in a regime similar to North Korea, Project 2025, the Taliban or Nazi Germany. One day, your adult son or daughter finds themselves in a Rosa Parks/Gandhi/Sophie Scholl type of situation. In the spur and heat of the moment, he/she considers making a highly visible, public gesture of defiance against the regime. As the parent, you are given magical foresight into exactly what will unfold if they do so. 1) Your son/daughter will promptly be executed by the regime, probably with exceptionally painful methods. But also, 2), their defiant public gesture, and death, will lead to a revolution that will eventually topple the regime and bring democracy and human rights for the nation, and history will laud them as a hero. What would you prefer that your son/daughter do? _Poll ([view on site](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/polls-only-no-discussion/953642/5220))_ ---
