You can't have it both ways

Either there's an imperative to try to make the right choice or there isn't

If choice matters, then there is

If not then there really is no choice

The starting line doesn't need to be even. It's not a game. It's basically two questions, in order. 1) Do you make any choices? 2) Do you believe in cause and effect?

why bother with a thought exp on whether you could theoretically choose to be hungry

Even the idea of an uneven starting line is mostly a myth. The rich don’t even have to race.

1) Yes. Everyone does. Regardless of the psychobabble they may spew to the contrary.
2) see #1

It's completely irrelevant. My question is not if you made better choices could you be the next bill gates. It's could your life be better than it is. In that game, the only competitor is your lesser self.

it's more useful than anything

It's completely oriented in the practical. If better decisions can improve your life all then that is basically the ONLY variable that is under your control/influence, which makes it especially relevant

If anything your advice if the most impracticle and useless advice imaginable. It leaves me with no alternative but to just resign myself to the fate prescribed to me.

You don't though. You wanna talk about living what you preach?

Try copping a charge and not calling mommy.
