The Airport Pickup as a Paradigm for Just Government
From Seinfeld, “The Airport“:
[George and Kramer are on their way to pick up Jerry and Elaine from the airport]
Kramer: …I never got the money back! He screwed me! And that’s the guy– John Grossbard!
George: Hey Kramer, c’mon– it was 240 bucks twenty years ago…
Kramer: No, I’m gonna turn around… I’m gonna get that guy…
George: No-no-no, Kramer. Kramer! Kramer! You *cannot* abandon people in the middle of an airport pickup! It’s a binding social contract.
I see a bright future for political philosophies based on airport pickups as the paradigm for just government.
