Yes but I thought atm it's fashionable to attack the argument we wish the other person had made.I'm not saying he's making a compelling argument against carbon tax
but desperately trying to claim that some 'protests' by a bunch of mouth-breathers who protest at the drop of a hat is a better indication of public support than polls is hilarious
lol, she is the worst person
anyone who works at the UN is confirmed a giant socailist cunt
foreign policy expert you're kidding me right?The Tory dude's argument had it's weakness' too, questions saying "do you want a tax" fail spectacularly, ones that say should Australian have a Carbon Tax tend to be narrow losers, ones that then mention the compensation even closer and ones asking if Australia should price carbon tend to say yes. It's popular support is a lot higher than the GST was in 1999. At any rate Hadid is a foreign policy expert not climate change/economics, she was branching out, so to speak.
Obviously she argued that poorly, but all this really shows is that Patterson probably took a lot more public speaking classes and moot competitions at high school and uni, his argument can be as easily picked apart as hers.
I've met her and I'm pretty sure she said she studied international relations at uni.foreign policy expert you're kidding me right?
Yeah Paterson's argument is weak given the prevalence of push polling but Hadid is obviously not a public intellectual by any stretch of the imagination
Well that's sorted, then. Outstanding.I've met her and I'm pretty sure she said she studied international relations at uni.
what an expert
Isn't that kind of what being an expert is?Well that's sorted, then. Outstanding.
Someone who is barely out of university working in that field is not an expert.Isn't that kind of what being an expert is?
"Her speciality is foreign affairs" better?Someone who is barely out of university working in that field is not an expert.
when I do my PhD there is a possibility I may be considered an expertIsn't that kind of what being an expert is?
Very well you use your arbitrary cut off point and I'll use mine.when I do my PhD there is a possibility I may be considered an expert
but yes some bitch with an arts degree is definitely an expert
Well yes, I thought having completed tertiary studies in the area might have been an objective way to determine it but that is not popular it seems. Not gonna stop me telling people I'm an environmental law expert in two years time though.arbitrary lol
b/c mastery over a subject is an arbitrary matter
