Politics - the ignorant resource allocator
3rd July 2018
Annie Duke reports that in a large scale survey in the US recently:
- Republican voters....... believed 36% of Democrats were gay, lesbian or bisexual
- The actual proportion of these genders was 2%.
Across the divide
- Amongst Democrat voters believed 44% of Republicans earned over $250,k pa.
- the actual proportion earning that was 2%
With this level of "understanding" is it wise to allow any government too clsoe to policy making ?
