I think Rafal is pointing in a very good direction, but I don't think
such a solution exists for any such problem in isolation.  It will
work when a critical amount of the population of persons adopt the
superrational viewpoint that **within the indefinite scope of an
uncertain future**, promotion of their individual values is optimized
by acting in accordance with best-known principles rather than
expected consequences.
