Who was deconstructing GDP for the sake of GDP analysis. I gave the definition of GDP. Whether GDP is an accurate measure of economic productivity is a completely different argument. Here I was "deconstructing" the implied relationship between Democrat district and "useful" (non government financed) economic productivity. There was no truth which was hard to swallow. Subtract govt benefits, gov't workers and govt sponsored business like defense and homeland security and then we could really know how productive the democrat's base is. I am confident that would be a truth which is hard to swallow.
How cute it was to leave out the important part of understanding this chart.... https://www.theatlantic.com/politic...-of-americans-who-pay-no-income-taxes/262499/ Update: My colleague Derek Thompson picks up the baton from me and digs deeper into the demographics of the so-called 47 percent. One important note he makes is that it's often the lowest-income people in these red states who are most likely to vote Democratic -- it's just that the rest of the population is conservative enough to carry the states into the Republican column. In 2008, Obama lost Georgia by 5 percentage points but he won 70% of voters who earned less than $30,000 -- which is precisely the demo most likely to owe no federal income tax. Obama lost Mississippi by 14 percentage points, but picked up 66% of voters who earned less than $30,000. As a general rule, Republicans win among richer voters -- both in the red states and the blue. Read the whole thing.
Look at the inbred logic - according to these dumbasses, there are more minorities in red states than blue states while ignoring the least educated consistently vote for Republicans. Somebody explain the correlation between education and income to this retard. What else to expect from birthers.
What the hell are you talking about? 1. This thread was about rich and poor. We have now shown the poor vote democrat and therefore you graphic was a not useful... some would say it was misdirection. On your other new point. Historically the dems are the least educated. But, they have been catching up and they only dominated that category by a point or two in 2012... if I recall. You have been shown you misread or misrepresented the chart or graphic you have been using. Your imaged showed an internal measure of democrats. It was not a measure of democrats vs republicans. Its pretty funny you would call out inbred logic when your statement is ignorant and wrong. Another exGoper shining of example of leftist Dunning Kruger. Enjoy your Thanksgiving over there in whatever country you are posting from. I will respond to your illogical crap about the U.S. tomorrow.
This is what I am talking about https://www.wsj.com/articles/midterm-results-point-to-a-new-divide-in-politics-education-1541865601 https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/education-not-income-predicted-who-would-vote-for-trump/ Your 'historically' is as good as your analysis of birth certificates. You are one of the 'low educated' the article talks about.
Brown in Ohio got it right, too. According to exit polls, he carried white college graduates by five points and lost white non-college-educated voters by a mere 10 points. Cordray lost white non-college-educated voters by 22 points. In a state where white non-college-educated voters make up well more than half the electorate, that was enough to sink him. Success against Trump in 2020 in the Upper Midwest will depend on repeating this formula. The necessity to keep down deficits among white non-college-educated voters, especially in rural and small-town areas, will be hard with Trump on the ballot. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opin...2fdbf9d4fed_story.html?utm_term=.94c7c012d515 No wonder Cons complain about college all the time, education kills ignorance aka conservatism.
You are such a piece troll garbage exGoper... I have told you this before... And as I said the gap has been closing recently... My history is accurate. I have presented this to you multiple times. See the Pew poll below. And I told you why the 538 article was meaningless in the past as well. Democrats crossed over and voted from Trump in the upper midwest. That is why he won. http://www.people-press.org/2015/04/07/a-deep-dive-into-party-affiliation/ "Democrats hold a 10-point lead in leaned party identification among those with no more than a high school education (47% to 37%)."
By the way when you think in systems and understand there are significantly more people who identify as Dems over Republicans you understand that of course they lead many of the least educated and most educated categories. Especially since now many conservatives are independents. However in terms of intelligence there is should be no doubt the dems dominate the low IQ end of the spectrum.. For instance here is the Berkeley study which shuts down your arguments about Dem intelligence (Dems dominate low IQs relative to Republicans and Republican leaners. ) ---- Strong Republicans and Ind near Republican skew to a much higher than average IQ. Strong democrats. moderate democrats and independents skew heavily to the lower end of the IQ scale. . http://sda.berkeley.edu/sdaweb/anal...s&sec508=false&weightedn=on&weightlist=COMPWT also... https://www.quora.com/Who-tends-to-have-a-higher-IQ-Democrats-or-Republicans[/QUOTE]
Who the fuck asked you about history? You wanna convolute the fact that the uneducated trash currently favor the Republicans by huge margins so you bring up 'history' as if that's relevant to the current situation. No thinking educated person would even think about supporting a fake university scammer.
