New Poll: Most Americans Agree With OWS
 

http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/lookout/...141203055.html

Math must not be your strong point.

More Americans agree with OWS as oppose it with a large chunk undecided. I think if they were to see the video and read the text the OWS have issued about what they want then the undecided figure would move over to the agree.

When did 43% become a majority?

43% agree
27% disagree
30% don't know, which negates that percentage. we could be fair and say that 15% of these people actually agree and 15% don't agree but then again we are back where we started eh?

If 43% agree and 27% disagree....well let's break it down for you.

43
-27
____

16

So, 16% more agree with the OWS movement than disagree, thus the majority who agree is larger than the minority who disagree.

51% would be most
43 < 51

Well, "failed" makes sense as an alias I guess. The ONLY way the title of the post would be correct would be if it said "New Poll: More Americans Agree With OWS"

43% will never be "most."

I didn't say "most", I quoted your post that said "majority." I'll give you my password, you can borrow my nick for the day, you've earned it!

and as i said being more than fair if 15% of those undecided were for OWS then 43 + 15 = 58%.

heck, if only 8% of those undecided 30% were for OWS it would give you your 51%.

but the reality is that if you don't have an opinion you don't count it, so 43% would be the majority in this poll.

Don't worry, the OWS movement will only grow, as will its approval.

math.. reading.. who needs em

:1orglaugh wake up. wall street = government

Oh right.. The loony "enlightened" thinkers are still unable to make distinctions..

The fact that there is no distinction is why OWS exists.:2 cents:

No, the OWS exists because they are unable to at least take partial blame for their stupidity because it would indicate they have some character flaws, so they must blame somebody else.

Oh, so your tactic is to change the subject in the middle of the conversation? What was the topic of this thread again? Oh yeah, New Poll: Most Americans Agree With OWS


A "majority of the people that took the poll" does not equal "most Americans."

spoken like a true Amerikan:winkwink:

Thanks, ignoring reality for your own benefit because you want to blame someone else. Spoken like a true liberal.:winkwink:

yes, it would mean "most americans" who had an opinion in the poll.
once again there are 30% with no opinion which does not count so you have 43%>27%

Is getting old a prerequisite for being a prick or were you born that way?

Did not know 1,650 adults represented the majority of Americans. But hey, when you desperately want your idiotic agenda to work, you've got to rationalize.

Somebody should make a GFY poll on this, just for fun.

If I start it people will say it is already slanted, so someone else should do it.

I apologize. I understand that today's educational system has let today's youth down, especially when it comes to logic.

You're kidding right? No matter who does it, the opposing side will claim "BIAS" almost instantly.

Yea? They offered Logic class in 1928? Did ya ace it?

Fine, here it is...

Wtf? Really? A "you're old!" joke? What are you, 12, or just have the mentality of a child?

:1orglaugh off your meds? it is just a poll, never said it was anything else.
just so you know-
Poll: a sampling or collection of opinions on a subject, taken from either a selected or a random group of persons, as for the purpose of analysis.

Title of the thread: New Poll: Most Americans Agree With OWS


Swing and a miss.:winkwink:

and 43% = most.

Yea I'm 12, and even so I don't live in my step dads basement. Is he making you a grilled cheese sandwich today?

I didnt say majority I said more.

Foster care or low income housing? Either way, don't you worry son. This year's taxes will cover you for another 6 months.:1orglaugh

:1orglaugh even though i started this thread i have to say it really delivers

hey guy if you don't agree with it, whine to yahoo news. don't shoot the messenger:error

Good to see your mom is finally paying taxes on her cam income. :1orglaugh

I don't need to whine to yahoo news. Your thread said "most Americans". When I destroyed your idiotic logic by proving that a poll is an unrepresentative sample, you backpeddle by claiming "it was just an opinion", which ignores the initial assertion that your thread title is misleading, or you make a last gasp post like this one. Either way, game, set and match.:1orglaugh

They must have changed their headline after you started this thread. It currently says, "Poll: More agree than disagree with Occupy Wall Street goals," not "New Poll: Most Americans Agree With OWS."

a poll is a set of opinions genius:1orglaugh
i think its more like game set and meds, as you need to be gettin back on yours:1orglaugh
