Question #87: Which of the following restrictions could you best tolerate: leaving the country permanently, or never leaving the state in which you now live?
I grew up in Texas and have lived here my whole life. Most of my loved ones are here. And plus, it's a really big place. I think I could suffer being in Texas the rest of my life. But if I left the country permanently, I would probably just stay in Canada.
Question #88: You, your closest friend, and your father are hiking in the remote jungle. Your companions come upon a nest of poisonous vipers and are bitten repeatedly. You have only one dose of serum and one will die. Who do you give it to?
I don't think I have a closest friend, so it really depends. Assuming that each are equally important to me, I should consider only practical implications. My family is dependent on my father's income to maintain our quality of living, but then again, we would get life insurance from his death and Alexis and I are almost independent from our parents. If my close friend has children or a spouse to support, then he or she would get the serum. I also have a feeling my father would opt to die and give it to my friend. I was also considering how difficult it would be to carry back a corpse from the jungle. I thought to myself, "If either my father or my friend were in a wheelchair, then he should not be given the serum, since I wouldn't want to carry the body back all by myself." Then I remembered that people in wheelchairs can't go on jungle hikes. :(
