ff, so the data shows your theory is wrong and so you claim the data is wrong, with not one iota of supporting evidence. you clearly are not a scientist and you'd suck wind as a process engineer, too. yes, i understand you want "long term" to mean that you want your pockets lined "long term" before it becomes obvious your theory did nothing but line your pockets. the problem is i posted long term data, almost 40 years worth: en.wikipedia.org oh, that's right! what was i thinking! the bush administration bush put out phoney data in to make it look like poverty exploded under his administration when, in fact, poverty diminished due to the billions in tax cuts. this was pure genius to fake the numbers because... because... because... wait, that makes no sense, just like your claim data you don't like isn't real even though it was presented by a republican administration that has no problem lying to make themselves look better, not worse. the problem with the theory spoon fed to you is that it isn't testable. if poverty drops during republican administrations, you'd take all the credit and give it to tax cuts. if, as THE FACTS SHOW VERY CLEARLY, poverty tends to EXPLODE under republican administrations and poverty tends to DECLINE under democratic administration, you go on to explain how things "take a long time and the data is bogus, but i can't tell you why, just trust me and send me my check." that's not science, it isn't a theory, it is hack-kneed politics with an eye toward increasing your personal wealth with no regard for the needy - which is why Knighty doesn't respect the republican spoon fed views. of course, you are free to disagree with him and with me, too. the only reason i'm responding is that your theory is not an honest theory because it can't be tested and your argument that the data is bogus is also not honest. it is convenient to your agenda, but not honest.
