"The General Socia...How about another survey:<br /><br />"The General Social Survey asked 733 Americans if they thought cheating on taxes is wrong, and also asked who they voted for in 1996. The graph shows that 16.3% of Clinton voters think tax evasion is not wrong or a little bit wrong, compared to 9.1% of Dole supporters."<br /><br />http://inductivist.blogspot.com/2009/02/democrats-love-to-tax-crap-out-of-you.htmlRon Guhnamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06421460508647618774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26188478.post-9858349715798449322010-04-15T20:29:52.370-07:002010-04-15T20:29:52.370-07:00Nice obfuscation.
Those who don't actually ...Nice obfuscation. <br /><br />Those who don't actually read the survey will have no idea that the survey included the option of saying "Not a moral issue". Since not paying your taxes is a legal issue it's unsurprising that many Liberals chose that option. Indeed, another way to accurately report the survey would be like this:<br /><br />"In a recent Pew survey, a very small percentage of respondents felt that not paying taxes on all of their income was morally acceptable. The difference between liberal views and conservative views on this subject was statistically insignificant - less than 3 percentage points."<br /><br />But you wouldn't want to report it that way would you?<br /><br />Once again, I congratulate you on your clever twisting of the facts to your agenda. Well done.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09850514455755979903noreply@blogger.com
