When I was 15 years old, I read the book, How to Lie With Statistics. Since then I’ve become a “birther” when it comes to numbers. I want to know where it came from and who has had their grubby hands on it.
I live in the wrong zip code for my political beliefs. I get junk mail from Judaical Watch, the Republican Party and the NRA plus some Pro-Trump literature all asking me my opinions and, of course, wanting $$$. I laugh when I read the questions.
One of them was, “How much money has the Republican Tax cut saved you?” and they gave dollar ranges. Negative numbers were not included. Also not included was time period. So, it could be “Great! I saved $20 a paycheck.” They didn’t care if that $20 was a saving every week, two weeks, month or annually.
I also like the question, “Tell us how great a job Trump is doing.” Excellent, Superb, Best Ever, Superior, Greatest …"
“Select among the following why Democrats are bad …” Oops, that was a FOX News poll.
The same ones who warned you a caucus dominated by white crackers who’d seized upon poorly engineered technology they hadn’t properly vetted was headed straight over a cliff.

Two is a rather small sample to get an accurate response to your question.
