Just a reminder that the point of researching the validity of things we intuitively know to be true is to provide the empirical data and expert analysis that can be used in, say, legal decisions or legislative processes.

Thanks Jerkface.

I hate comments that are like “duh, we fucking know! Thus XYZ report or research is a waste of time and money!”

empirical data ... legislative processes.

Haha good one. The only data that matters to those in charge is what makes them more money, and the business friends more money and the lobbyists more money. Other data is basically irrelevant with the current asshiles that are in charge.

we should try getting to the point where common sense is applied before legislation is passed! that'd probably save some fucking money
