Which is why the pizza system is so elegant. There's an old problem: how do you get a whole bunch of highly intelligent sociopaths (for example, a large proportion of the U.S. government) to trust each other and work towards a common goal? They're sociopaths, so their natural inclination is to work together as long as it suits their needs, then betray anybody they have to if it helps them get ahead. Turns out the answer is to implicate them all in horrific crimes then to blackmail them into behaving. As long as they cooperate they are allowed to continue to indulge in whatever perversions they wish. If they don't: hey there Barry, yeah well, the thing is, we kinda have this video of you at John's party with a disemboweled baby in a pentagram, so you sure you want to go ahead and do that?
