What? I'm still in the lead?

JasonF

That doesn;t seem fair to the people who picked one or the other.

Under which category? It comes closest to fitting under consumption, but I don't think they are the same.

I passed Red Dog while seemingly never moving from the bottom 5.

Expense or "what you spend" do not equal govt spending, IMO. Could easily be consumer spending. or both.

Red Dog

If he said it like you wrote it above, I think it's reasonably clear that it's gov't spending.

JasonF

In light of your edit, then I absolutely disagree. If he had said Government Expenses, sure. But expenses include private expenditures, too, some of which go toward consumption and some of which go toward investment.

Am I missing the people who answered an thier scores?

Venusian

expenses seem to fit in consumer spending which is only part of consumption. right?

While we debate Question 20, let's move on to Question 21:


21. S: ×3 If you were to ask people to name all the presidents, which one would most people have the hardest time remembering?

Pharoh

They're wrong.

Red Dog

If he just said Spending, what would you rule?

JasonF

Scroll up. I forgot to post the pictures with the individual answers so I threw all the pictures (with nothing else) up in a single post at the end. Scores and players are in prior posts.

Red Dog

What can I say. You relate to sheep more than I do. Plus I didn't expect half the forum to answer Romania on that Warsaw Pact question.

Mordred

What if he said "Spending (It's what you Expense)?"

Venusian

This was a hard one. I went with shortest term, probably a bad idea

Red Dog

I'd say I'm getting a headache.

LurkerDan

I think this question is going to screw me. I went with an honest answer (ie a President I expect won't be named by many) but whether the forum agrees with me (or can even remember him ) has yet to be seen.

CRM114

Who screwed me on Duncan Hunter?

JasonF

Wrong, absent someone making a very compelling case.

Mordred

I think it was a good idea.

LurkerDan

and I went with his successor.

Red Dog

Okay. That makes it simple. If you wouldn't accept that, then what he said shouldn't count.

As I said before, the one time you vote for a Republican in your life.
