Quote:BTW; here's a poll showing the splits among age groups:

 

• 18-24: 75% Remain
  
• 25-49: 56% Remain
  
• 50-64: 44% Remain
  
• 65+: 39% Remain

<p style="font-size:1em;">So looks like the Me Generatiion has once again gotten their greedy little claws all over the benefits and prosperity and once they didn't need it anymore they voted to get rid of it leaving the younger generations to pick up the pieces. Seriously I can't wait until the Baby Boomers shuffle off their mortal coil.

Quote:As they say, you could make a poll say anything.  Do you find anything odd about the numbers that you posted?

 

I need to point out my question because I don't have time to be on the board much more today, but here is what I'm pointing out.

 

The first group ranges in age from 18-24.  That's a 6 year difference of age.  The second group ranges in age from 25-49.  That's a 24 year difference of age.  The third group ranges in age from 50-64.  That's a 14 year difference of age.  Why the difference in sample age?  Could it be because the person reporting it wants the results to specifically be skewed in a certain way?

 

Why not report a sample such as:

 

18-29

30-39

40-49

50-59

60+

 

I'll bet that the results don't look as skewed as the "selective" numbers.
