It's things like this that make me suspicious that EA is especially beset with Dunning–Kruger.

While I enjoy the image of chicken drives with mounted riders moving their herds flocks of chickens from pasture to pasture I suspect there are reasons this isn't done.
Absent cows it's more likely the forage would be consumed by other existing ruminants, bison, deer, elk, moose, etc.

Presumably we could see a bimodal distribution of fertility, though I don't believe we do. Most of graphs I've seen look more like a dose response curve.

May have been increased turnout from a specific demographic group that were supporting Obama.

Inferior in what sense or to what end? Would be a more sensible response than agreement.
Inferior typically applies between variations of a type or catagory, and then often for a specific use. Horses would make inferior men, and men inferior horses. Your usage makes little sense.

Inferior at breast feeding or baby having?

Alas, importing Japanese style intensive fat-shaming is unlikely.
Could we import active, fit, elderly Japanese men to make us feel like lazy fatties?
Have you not seen "Conquest of the Planet of the Apes"? Spoiler

Thanks. This was my first.

I honestly think high school students in the 1950s and 1960s were actually better thinkers than college graduates and in some cases college students in the 21st century.
High school attainment in 1950 was 34.3% and Bachelors was 6.2%, 2019 this was 90.1% and 36%.
Neither high school or undergrad are as selective as they were. I'd expect the quality of graduates to suffer.

unnecessarily large pickups
This is also regulation at work.
Previous generations of Americans loved light compact pickups like the Chevy LUV, Datsun 620, Isuzu Hombre, etc.

Like Welfare to Work? The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 (PRWORA)

Yes.
Although we appear to see a similar increase of students in high school, and a corresponding reduction in average quality of graduates. The inflation and lack of rigor in high school is partially why so many would need undergrad studies now.

I think you may be underestimating the degree CAFE standards have made trucks giant in the US.

NIH issued a release on their study last month.
Compared to healthy volunteers, affected U.S. government personnel did not exhibit differences that would explain symptoms.
~
The researchers note that if the symptoms were caused by some external phenomenon, they are without persistent or detectable patho-physiologic changes. Additionally, it is possible that the physiologic markers of an external phenomenon are no longer detectable or cannot be identified with the current methodologies and sample size.

How did they lower the rates in Europe?
Are those pressures being applied to violence prone populations today?

population wanting stupid stuff I think is price controls- the idea of keeping rent or gasoline below a certain hard cap
I'm not sure what people want are price caps. People want affordable abundant housing and energy. Price caps don't typically achieve this. Politicians promising price caps are frequently popular which is why they persist.

There are factions of "Big Eva" who seem to be moving more Left (see the recent "He gets us" commercial in the Super Bowl).
They went with foot washing. I would have preferred the casting out of demons, or over turning tables and driving out the money changers or hypocrisy condemning. They don't get me.

US intelligence publicly told everyone that Russia was about to invade Ukraine weeks before it happened.
Ambassador William Burns predicted it in 2008
Experts tell us that Russia is particularly worried that the strong divisions in Ukraine over NATO membership, with much of the ethnic-Russian community against membership, could lead to a major split, involving violence or at worst, civil war. In that eventuality, Russia would have to decide whether to intervene; a decision Russia does not want to have to face.
Yes.
Though this comment didn't.
