Cold Cuts

This was created to discuss a wide variety of topics, from current politics, game theory, poker, ecosytstems,herd behavior in the stock market, popular culture, trends and fads, and how everything ties in together, while trying to keep a tab on important but boring political issues. Instead of hot button issues, like flag burning, praying in school, gays, or praying in school while your burning a gay pride flag.

Welcome

Welcome to the new blog, I've had a sort of ephiany a couple weeks ago, that i would like to amass a discussion about.
After playing poker for a while, I realized that it reflects ecosystems in everyday life. Which seems to basically boil down to the strong living off the weak. This can be seen anywhere, in a poker game, the sharks surviving off the fish, a discovery channel documentry, a chetah surviving off antelope, in popular culture, whole companies changing their products to survive off the feeding frenzy on the next trend, and in the stock market, hype being made about a company thats hot, which its usually not all that hot, except when the hype has grown strong enough for a huge number of investors to buy shares, raising the price enough for the intial investors producing the hype, to cash out and walk away with a marginal gain while others lose a little money, and politics which has a lot of grey area, I can't really list any examples off the top of my head on that one. Please share any thoughts and information which tie in to any of these topics or related topics, I've always known from being taught evolution as a kid, about natrual selection and only the strong survive, but only recently have my eyes opened where this theory can be applied to virtually anything.
