An awful lot of this discussion seems to be on the level of
it's-mine-and-I-don't-wanna-share and I-shouldn't-have-to-do-it-
if-I-don't-want-to.  Both of these are familiar patterns of child
behavior which usually diminish as a child is socialized.  I suspect
that anyone who has reached adulthood without such socialization
is not going to be very susceptible to argumentation.

Of course, the opposing attitude of "we're stronger than you are, and
you'll do what we tell you whether you want to or not" is an attitude that
most bullies hold. Unfortunately, people don't normally outgrow that.
