11. I compare it with the Covid epidemic

The data was based on the states giving good data. I believe that there were many more deaths from Covid than reported because several states concealed the truth which skewered the total numbers.

Back when Romney ran against Obama, Gallup was the king of polls and it predicted a Romney win. The excuse it gave was from bad data in its formula. So my question is, was the bad data done deliberately or not?

Maybe one bad apple won't spoil the whole keg of BLS or the Fed, but it can make it stink. Krasnov will certainly replace honest people with his cronies, look what happened to the Supreme Court.
