There's a board game called "Would you rather." I believe it's based on previous books where questions are posed where you have to decide which option sucks less. I found the Tyson question on a web site. I don't know if it's from the game or something someone made up. I guess it's intended to be one of the more humorous questions.
I wonder if they have this totally unbiased question: Would you rather have an instant depression (to hear Paulson tell it) by not bailing out wallstreet. Or a chinese water torture depression by getting squeezed every 3 months for another 700 billion dollars for Hankie's friends before the depression?
