The Flawed Argument of 'Skin in the Game'

This chapter discusses the idea of 'skin in the game' in relation to decisions about war and military intervention. It argues that this argument is flawed due to the voluntary nature of the military and the understanding of risks by those who join. Additionally, it addresses misconceptions about American boots on the ground in Israel or Ukraine, emphasizing that participation in these conflicts is voluntary and not indicative of the stance on intervention.
