Nice try. But you failed big time. You'll find that I've never typed a single word in any post here Wiz Imp Wednesday #15
I did not "fail big time." I did not "fail" at all. You admitted my point. SunSeeker Wednesday #17

You failed at your implication of tRump interference. "unless" is a hypothetical, a possibility, nowhere near a fact.nt Bernardo de La Paz Wednesday #22

There's plenty of evidence of Trump defaming BLS staff and BLS survey responses dropping off. SunSeeker Yesterday #36
Declines in survey responses have been happening slowly without tRump. There is no evidence he has accelerated it. Bernardo de La Paz 23 hrs ago #38

Your excerpt indicates NO problem from political influence and MAYBE survey lack of response maybe in the FUTURE. . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Wednesday #20
Groshen is worried for a reason. I think she knows what she is talking about. SunSeeker Yesterday #30
Exactly as I stated. She is worried about survey participation, NOT about fudging data or calculations. Bernardo de La Paz Yesterday #32
You fail to understand Groshen's (and my) point. Participation drops hurt data accuracy. SunSeeker Yesterday #35
Data inaccuracy due to survey response rates is NOT corruption, NOR is it interference, NOR is it the fault of BLS. Bernardo de La Paz 23 hrs ago #37
Trump causing response rates to fall is interference. SunSeeker 22 hrs ago #41
