“Demagoguery beats data in making public policy.”

I feel the same way whenever those ubiquitous "burning the flag"--Republican and "raise the minimum wage"--Democrat bills appear in Congress during Election years.

I feel the same way whenever those ubiquitous "burning the flag"--Republican and "raise the minimum wage"--Democrat bills appear in Congress during Election years.

I do, too.

Unfortunately, election-year pandering is not limited to one party, and neither is abandoning all principles to chase those votes.
