I've yet to get a clear answer on how they correct for the fact that no one answers the phone or wastes time talking to pollsters for free. I keep reading that " they take it into account" but not the methods used.

If by taxes you mean spending them on bullshit sure.

He spent a quarter billion dollars so a select few retailers can make a bit of profit a year early.
