That's a bummer, but your SEO experts shouldn't be afraid! They shouldn't let you flip over the whole website either though. You guys should just run a test on one landing page. Yandex and Baidu are pretty ignorable, Google

It's not the same. This isn't trying to break the rules of physics. It's just a very large welfare program that would benefit from not having a bureaucracy behind it. And it would rely on the theory that enough people will st

It's the causation that you suggest that's wrong. Income inequality is not an _input_ into this equation. It's the measure of a system! And what income inequality is really measuring is just the mix of jobs. If you have ever

Uhhhhhhhh income inequality does not have that kind of effect. Income inequality may effect the taxes paid by people, but it doesn't change salaries the way that you're suggesting. America just has more highly paid jobs, because w

Right. How would we tease that apart? When two people have the same years of experience in the same job title, but then one of them gets a new title and the other one doesn't-- what is that? Just from the data, we won't really kn

I wouldn't go as far as imaginenore, but you do really need to control for "years of experience" or "job title", not simply "occupation". Sadly, job titles vary a lot, but it would help. _Nevertheless_ the

Uh, that's not the silver lining from my POV. The silver lining is that liberals will realize that maybe limited government is a good thing, because they can't always rely on their person being in power.

My dad does competition shooting. The format is that you can as many rounds as you want to hit 5 targets. So you can shoot off a lot of rounds. But the key insight is: "You can't miss a shot fast enough to justify not aiming.&quot
