    Default Hypothetical Question

    2 Men in black suits come do your door and identify themselves from a government agency.

    You are told that they need you to drive a large rental truck from Chicago to some shit town in Southern California.

    The terms are you will be paid $5000 which will be left in a rent-a-car for your trip back home but If for some reason you get caught - we've never heard of you. You are told however that this is for the good of the American people and the nation as a whole. Maybe national security? However they can not disclose the cargo.

    What do you do?

    If you decline, does that mean that you are not a patriot?

    Tell them that will be $10K up front and $10K at delivery.

    Not if I decline, but yes if it is someone other than me. I'm pragmatic like that.

    I'd ask "What happened to Agent K?"

    Of course it means you're not a patriot. I mean who doesn't help MIB? What if an Arquillian Battleship is orbiting Earth and threatening to destroy all live on it? You'd be mad not to help!!!
