    I'm getting stuck with phrase "social decision-making".  
    I'm wondering if it is an oxymoron.


  Ah, perhaps this is the crux of the matter. 

That I'm getting stuck, that I'm wondering, or that social decison-making is an oxymoron?  

I might have cut out more than you wanted me in this reply but I prefer to focus on the crux of the matter.
