Note: Before reading the following arguments, please understand that they are not what I believe. On Wednesdays, I deliberately argue for wrong ideas, challenging my listeners to call and defend the obvious right answer, which is usually far harder than one would expect. This is a summary of what Wacky Andrew will be arguing, not a representation of what real Andrew believes.~Survival of the fittest is how we got here, not survival of the earliest to arrive.
~This sort of artificial equality is essentially unnatural.
~Only suckers wait in lines.
~Even people who otherwise might wait in lines don’t wait when there’s a merge lane, for instance. ~All kids know by nature that lines are a problem. Just look at how hard it is for them to do this.
~Unwillingness to wait in line stems primarily from diminished enthusiasm. Just think about it, the people who want it most should go first, not the people who arrived earliest because their lives are so dull they have that much free time.
~If lines are so important, why isn’t cutting them illegal?
~Some people are slow or inept or want to buy too much. Why should the rest of us have to wait for them?
~Line mentality is the same as tenure mentality. How’s that working for us?
