Then everything for the future is purely hope. You eat a steak? I sure hope it doesn't turn into lava in your stomach! You enter a car? Better hope it doesn't turn into a crocodile and swallow you!
Must be a strange life you're leading, but anything you can tell yourself to ease your conscience. Surely the same number of cows would be killed if nobody ate any meat, they could always hope that tomorrow people start again!
to an extent you're right, but I understand the laws of physics. markets are not dictated by anything like the laws of physics.
Better hope the laws of physics don't magically change!
if they were subject to the whims of irrational actors, I might worry more.
Better hope they aren't!
