keep up the memes, bucko

"the minute we choose to do this we lose our humanity"

This guy just claimed that hookers have a worse death rate than workers on oil rigs and Alaskan fishermen.

*researching furiously...*

scrolling through the episodes

it seems like they want to connect with the rust belt by acting like evangelists with pamphlets

"Have you heard of the good word of socialism?"

also, they apparently restarted their episode count... unless those are new seasons

It looks like the number that gets passed around is 204 for every 100,000 prostitutes is killed per year. But then this same chart says that an estimated 1 in 10 men has purchased a prostitute.

Trying to look into details behind the stat now.

Well the source it cites for that number doesn't even include that statistic and it's from 1996.

It looks like it comes from this article https://academic.oup.com/aje/article/159/8/778/91471

Which states itself in the opening "They identified 117 definite or probable deaths and had sufficient information on 100 to calculate a **crude mortality rate**"

n = 1,969

I'm as opposed to dead hookers as the next guy but this is obviously not a good stat to be parroting.

prostitutes are dropping dead like flies

my god, it's like they're charging into no man's land

they're cannon fodder for lonely dicks!

yeah if they only look at 100 hookers, then extrapolate that.... yeah

lol

seems like that study took a week to complete

Well it was about 2k hookers but regardless it's clearly not a thorough or very useful stat.

The most you can say is that it ought to be investigated more.

in other news, debt:GDP is 104% in USA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWCoDORgs3A

a lot of it has to do with bond repayments

govt keeps offering bonds for some reason

which is crazy

i mean its so easy not to... i dont see what sort of lobbyist is forcing them to keep issuing bonds, beyond bond investors

but whatever

bond investors could easily see more profit elsewhere
