MS: You have previosly complained about conditions in Canada. Now you slam Texas. In which part of the world do you think it would be better to live, if not in U.N. rated #1 Canada?Qx: I think you're trying to change the subject and assume that a brief autobiographical vignette that touches on the subjects of authoritarianism,conformity and my own intellectual development should serve as a basis for a comparison between Texas and Canada.It's an irrelevent question as to whether or not any reply in regards to your question because I am simply one person and to take my reply as true or false is very much a subjective inference on your part.
Your nationalistic sentiments seem to produce a need to use U.N. statistics as a frame of reference to promote your point of view but I feel that your claims are glittering generalizations that indicate an inductive fallacy. I ,for one, do not believe that the UN statistics concerning Canada are representative of the sample as a whole. The UN statistics are drawn from government data which has a tendency to underreport poverty statistics and to ignore large transient populations.So here's another source. It's a statistical generalization you pose that is usually true, but not always true. When you treat that as though it were always true, you commit a fallacy.For a reference you should read HOW TO LIE WITH STATISTICS by Darrell Huff.
None.
