That excuse works one time. After that, you fix incentives and hire competent data gatherers. | ||||||||

> you fix incentives and hire competent data gatherers You assume the data gatherers were at fault... <chuckle> These data gatherers work for their government. How do you ensure they're happy to gather and publish data which is essentially critical of that very government? | ||||||||

I agree, if you can't publish a number that's pretty accurate then you shouldn't publish anything. That's why i wasn't broken hearted when Trump fired that BLS person. If you can't even get close then someone needs to be found that can or at least has the balls to say "idk what the number is, we're not publishing without good data". | ||||||||
