Trust the drug
Oxytocin is apparently a hormone in your head that makes you a trusting calm little evolved monkey. And scientists are going to feed you more of it. American and swiss scientists are currently testing the idea by giving participants in the experiment a nose spray (I hate taking those, it's so icky) of oxytocin. I don't trust it. However, it is apparently working. The recipients are apparently more likely to give their money over to total strangers without any guarantee of return. Why is it that they decide that the experiment should entail a pyramid scheme, what are they playing at here? Scientists are afraid of abuse of this new discovery by politicians. Of course. Well, I'll believe it when I take it.
