"In economic theory, the money pump argument is a thought 
experiment showing that rational behavior requires transitive 
preferences. Classical economic theory assumes that 

preferences are transitive: if someone thinks A is better than 
B and B is better than C, then they must think A is better than C. 
In other words, there cannot be a "cycle" of preferences.

The money pump argument notes that if someone held a set 
of intransitive preferences, they could be exploited (pumped) 
for money until being forced to leave the market."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money_pump

Most thought experiments are flawed one way or the other,
just like Dan Christensens application of Russels Paradox
to the Drinker Paradox is flawed.

Whats the flaw?
