I feel like we always do things exactly the opposite of whatever rational would be.

"These people aren't using the land to it's full potential so we're justified in murdering them and taking the land." - About the people living half naked off the land.

"You can't just make people move, even if you compensate them and are doing it for the greater good." - About the people who drive a pickup truck to Walmart.

I know there's more nuance, it's just funny to me.
