This is Horse Hockey. I wanna hear Bob narrate this. Tell Bob to get his ass in front of a camera. We miss his no nonsense analysis.

So, if the solution for selecting political leaders is a no set, does that mean no government? (only way to satisfy the solution given there is no way of choosing one) Ha! Me thinks anarcho-capitalists would like this!

Arrow's Impossibility Theorem just a dishonest abstraction of possible but unlikely and unusual voter choices which appropriately fail to impact the outcome?
Far from honest, is this a red herring designed to perpetuate the very flawed process Arrow's Impossibility Theorem pretends to depose?
