Bogus Polls

[kellychaos]

Polls have an unconstructive influence on society. To make a scientific prediction is one thing because there static factors, preceeding theorems, previous and repeated like experiments, ect to back up your predictions. Society is a different matter. When you are constently forcing public opinion through mass peer pressure and, in turn, are re-enforcing the lead of the subject, person, ect that had the lead in the last poll. This gives undue influence to leading OPINIONS that may have been wrong in the first place. It may also, consequently, produce a slightly higher deviation in polling results than it (the more popular belief of the last poll) had since the last poll for the stupid-heads that base their beliefs in such things ... assuming that no major change in cirsumstances had occured from the last poll. Simple re-enforcement. It becomes a reiterative mess. I know. I'm rambling. Polls are stupid ... for voters anyway ... for politicians, they are a tool.
