Vaccination = Intelligence? Not likely intelligence (whatsoever). Luxury Beliefs

Vaccination = Intelligence?
Not likely intelligence (whatsoever).
Luxury Beliefs. Virtue Signaling. Close quarters white collar employment. Female density in white collar employment. False proxy of degree for intelligence. (The big hole in most of this nonsense.) Institutional pressure. Insurance fears.

Correlation is rarely causation.
Most first order correlations do not expose the distribution of incentives.
This is one of them.

The statistic we DO know is that empathizing (feminine) and systematizing (masculine) plus neuroticsm and feelings of helplessness in unstable classes produce expected distributions in the poplation not subject to institutional pressures.

Unfortunately I had to make the decision of whether to continue to debunk bad social science, and in particular economics, or work on legal reform that would fix it less directly but fix the problem more broadly.

But any behavioral economist should have been able to enumerate the various and rather obvious causal distributions that would need to be acounted for but are clearly absent in the source data – because the outcome was desired by not including it.

You shoujld have seen what I found out working with climate scientists and the ‘global warming’ institutions back in 09.
