    So you don't know what peer review is, nor the difference between an opinion magazine for commentators and true Academic journals.

      Whatever problems you have with the article, which you have conveniently not bothered to share with us, is your problem. I would hope that you have something to contribute regarding the actual alteration of the poverty measurements proposed and the results they will yield instead of just whining uncontrollably (and inaccurately) about a source that has no relevance to the topic at all.

      If you wish to make intelligent objections to anything in the article specifically, I am more than willing to listen. However, I am more concerned about what people think about the proposed changes themselves.


      No you're not. You just wanted to spread propaganda. Otherwise, you wouldn't have posted a blatantly biased and ignorant article. Or you just massively retarded to not realize.

        "peer review" means you have one of your peers look over a publication for typos.

          I only read the first paragraph before my well-honed "heavily biased drama queen" detector went off and I decided I couldn't trust anything else in it. If the article is meant to be taken seriously, it should start off by not reciting obvious bull**** (changes to the poverty line had 'little or nothing to do with poverty'?).[/quote]

          Thank you for admitting to all that you have no actual objections to the article, but rather are just pulling things out of your ass.


          If you are concerned about what people think about the proposed changes, did it ever occur to you to actually find an objective source that identifies the changes?
          The source is perfectly fine. It tells you what Obama's actually announcement was, and it tells you what it means for future calculations.

          You might know that if you were not such a brand whore.

          That's what you should've done. What you did instead was link to one of the most childish articles I've ever read. If this is what passes for academically sound in your world, that is truly pathetic and you should mail your degree right back to where you ordered it from.
          1.) You didn't read it.

          2.) You have yet to actually object to anything it says. Thats probably because most of what is in it is absolutely correct, math being math and all.

            When one of you can actually point out something in the article you disagree with and support why, let alone point out something that is wrong, then you can pretend to have a point.

            I guess we made progress now that you guys have moved on from declaring that pointing out the factual announcement was nothing but propaganda and can accept Obama actual said something on Tuesday. Small steps.

              Yes, my post strenuously objecting to the tone and bias of the article means I've no actual objections to it. Well read, son.

                  And this is how Patty defines winning or losing an argument (how many people support your side on an internt forum).

                    It's his fault for letting himself get into such a silly source arguement rather than simply ignoring such sniping and laying out why he agreed with the analysis it out foward.

                      Seems the word poverty has become synonymous with "income inequality" for some people. I haven't bothered to check who is to blame, but someone is.

                          Gotcha.

                          Let me quote you again:

                          the obvious bias of the opening paragraph made me gag and I stopped reading it altogether.
                          You have said several times now you have not read the article, with the exeption of the opening paragraph. Or in other words, you can't possibly have any objections the the positions contained within.

                          Thanks for clearing up for us that this whole temper tantrum of yours was based on nothing more than you taking issue with "tone."

                          If you had no intention on discussing the topic but rather an irrelevancy, why post at all?

                          So we have established two things:

                          1.) The event prompting the OP is real despite being labeled "propaganda" by Asher.

                          2.) So far the effects of the measurement change as presented in the OP remain unchallenged.

                            No sensible person would read and trust the article given its opening paragraph.

                            Any rational person would dismiss it as the ravings of a man with an agenda, which is what it was. Even if it contains nuggets of truth, it's something I won't read given the bias of the article. I honestly don't give a flying **** about the poverty line or Republican vs Democrat politics because I'm free of that ****storm.

                            I'm just letting you know you need to be far more intelligent about your sources. Don't cite bull**** like that if there's better sources available.

                              To undermine the topic and/or person.

                              Duh.

                              But source is always relevant. You know you need better sources than right wing blogs. Get the topic/resolution/white house statement from source.
