    I don’t know, I’ve never met anyone who actually prefers the stick. I know that the stick is a necessary measure in a lot of policy making to improve efficiency, but I’ve never seen the receiver preferring it to the carrot. Not trying to attack you or anything, just wanted to share my thoughts since you wrote that your intent was to induce a moment of self reflection. In my experience, that’s far easier to achieve with the carrot, particularly when strangers discuss stuff online. Anyway, I’ll stop talking now, have a good day.
