the 90-10 fallacy

By

If 90% of the people want Elbert County to control things like oil & gas and water, how come we only ever hear from 10% of them?

10% seems all you need to get the Planning Commission and the BOCC to write up and pass new laws.

Are members of the Planning Commission and the BOCC so consumed by their own power that it only takes a handful of cheerleaders to make them execute?

Thomas Jefferson

"It is error alone which needs the support of government. Truth can stand by itself."

Aristotle

"Only an armed people can be truly free. Only an unarmed people can ever be enslaved."

Karl Popper

“A theory which is not refutable by any conceivable event is nonscientific. Irrefutability is not a virtue of a theory (as people often think) but a vice.”
