Too much choice makes one stupid?

Have you ever tried to find a movie amongst your best friend's monster collection and not been satisfied? Or stared at a restaurant menu with so many choices you can't decide? If so, you're not alone. Barry Schwartz makes a good argument of how our expanding smorgasbord of choices in western culture may actually limit us...

Could this really be affecting our culture and nation?

    • I see only two choices: 'Vote up' and 'Vote down'.

      But seriously, i think man never got time to learn to choose from so many different things all day long.

      Stop thinking these kind of choices actually matter. Food is food, wine is wine. Accept the fact things may be worse than others, choices may go bad, people are bound to make mistakes. Learn from it and proceed~
