Have you noticed that when ever liberals are confronted about their liberal ideas or programs that they challenge conservatives with, the conservative's ideas and programs are "not perfect"? We all know that there are very very few ideas or programs that are "perfect" so the liberal's argument always works. What ever happened to the concept of "good enough"? The world does not work on the basis of "perfect", it works on the basis of "good enough". It is a classical "straw man argument".
Here is a short example of the mind dead thinking of most liberals. We have two states, one with a population of 1 million and another with 10 million. We want to find out how many of the people in each state are over 65 years old. Rather than ask 100% of the people in each state how old they are, some smart Industrial Engineer proposes that we just ask 500 people in each state how old they are and then "assume" the ratio is the same for the whole state. The result of the questioning shows that in the smaller state the number of people over 65 years of age is 83 or 16.7%. In the larger state the ratio turns out to be 18.4%.
The conclusion is that the larger state has a high percentage of people over 65 years of age. Some liberal comes along and says that we can not conclude the bigger state has a higher percentage of older people because we did not take a big enough sample in the larger state. Because there are 10 times as many people in the larger state, we should have asked 10 times as many people how old they were to have a fair comparison.
What do you think? Do you agree with the liberal? To be sure about how many people each state has over age 65, do you think we need to ask 100% of the people how old they are? Would you believe that to have exactly the same level of accuracy that the size of the sample has "nothing" to do with the size of the state? If more people understood statistics, we would see the flaw in the liberals' "not perfect" argument. Profiling is a perfect example of ignorance of basic statistics by the voting public that has lead to a rejection of a perfectly good policy. We need more voters who understand basic math if the USA has any chance of surviving. Look in the mirror. Is profiling a good idea? Do you agree with liberal "not perfect" logic?
Think about Obamacare. Liberals ask conservatives if they do not like Obamacare, "then what is their proposal"? How about "do nothing". Liberals can't seem to understand that concept either. It is the old life boat story where someone screams "do something" when it is clear that doing nothing is the right decision.
