In polls about cities you’ve “visited”, do you count cities where you’ve changed flights at the airport (e.g. O’Hare) but didn’t actually leave the airport?
- Yes - being at the airport counts as visiting the city
- No, although if I had to stay overnight at a nearby hotel due to flight delays I would count that as “visiting”
- No, it only counts as a “visit” if I spent some time in the actual city, not just for the purposes of being in transit

My tax professor once said that a tax can either be simple or it can be fair, but it cannot be both. A simple tax might be a flat tax. A fair tax would more complicated, but tailored for taxpayers’ different circumstances, incentivizing good behavior but discouraging bad, being progressive to make richer people pay more, etc. Within reasonable bounds, would you prefer your taxes to be:
- Simple
- Fair

Two fast food places, side by side, are offering an incentive on their receipts for you to take their online survey. One is offering a chance at a weekly drawing for $1,000 and the other a food item, a small sandwich. Which is more likely to make you take the survey?
- I’ll take the guaranteed food.
- I’d rather have a chance at something more significant.
- I loathe polls and would never fall prey to either.
0 voters
The one offering food makes you buy a large soft drink to get the sandwich.
- That makes me less likely to be incentivized.
- It makes no difference.

Do you really believe the one offering cash has a weekly drawing?
- Are you kidding me?
- Of course. Either too many people are watching or basic honesty makes ‘them’ follow through.
