Hobson's choice; hobsons
noun
1
the only option that is offered and, therefore, no choice at all. Widely claimed, since 1712, to derive from Tobias Hobson, who hired out horses, and is reputed to have compelled his customers to take whichever horse happened to be next in line, or go without; however, 'Hodgson's choise' is recorded in 1617 UK, 1649.
