Here is one statistical data that hasn’t been reported by the news media to the general public. In 100% years of gathering statistical data behavioral scientists have been able to solve 0% percent social behavioral problems. In short, the odds of behavioral scientists solving behavioral problems with statistics are zero to none.
Let’s compare gathering statistical data with medical physicians requiring their nurses gathering vital signs (i.e. blood pressure, body temperature, weight, height etc.). Vitals signs identify the trend of the human body’s physical health. Medical physicians track our vital signs to signal an alarm if our physical health may be experiencing complications. Either our physical health is moving upward, downward or laterally.
Medical physicians rarely formulate diagnosis solely on vital signs. Rather, they gather samples (blood or urine etc.), take x-rays or schedule MRI examinations to perform more precise analysis. The latter enables personnel of the medical field to identify the origin of problems prior to concluding their medical opinions.
The news media broadcast the statistical reports gathered by behavioral scientists. The general public automatically reacts to the reports as supplying vital information to formulate opinions. In reality the reports are germinating meme viruses (i.e. rumors, gossip, rhetoric or propaganda) that chain react into forms of ethnic hatred.
For example: The news media may report that African Americans represent a small percentage of the population yet a large percentage of the welfare population. Whites may conclude from the report that Blacks are the problem affecting our economy. As a result they may flock to the polls or lobby legislators to pass laws for welfare reform.
The irony of the crisis is that behavioral scientists are actually the primary carriers of the viruses that they are supposed to be decontaminating in society. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) and World Health Organization (WHO) should be made aware of the problem. Otherwise, the virus will continue spreading like wildfire among our general population.
