It reminds me of Pascal's wager. How confident can one be that one's chosen political team will definitely win out in the long run? 90%? That seems very high, but even if you're 99% sure, are you willing to act in a way that will surely warrant retribution in the unlikely adverse scenario? Seems like a pretty dumb wager to make.
