Suppose you are waiting in line at a fast food restaurant. There are only a couple people working, so it takes a while for food to get out. Are you allowed to order a milkshake, which will slow things down even further for the people behind you? Or should you just get a soda instead?
I believe Kant would say to go for the soda. But Kant never had an oreo cookie shake. I believe Ayn Rand would say to get the shake, but she's a philosopher in much the same way that the woman who wrote Twilight is a literary scholar. Zizek would also go for the shake, but only because he smokes copious amounts of the reefer.
Philosophers are useless.
