I am only starting to mischaracterize your approaches to things. You have been doing that constantly and annoyingly for this entire discussion to my statements. When I tell you where I am at you then double down as if you are a know it all.
Scientists are not impugned by anyone for being called out for bias. It exits. It is a thing that starts all research projects. Ironing it out is difficult because there is no one size fits all.
You are not supporting a backdoor system etc…but you will find us stuck in the muck telling politicians to prosecute employers. We need to move forward not shoot down tax payers. The purpose of the policy needs to be clearly stated as something other than an assault on other Americans. That is worthless.
Ask yourself why was I annoying Leap? Then you will say I do not like my own medicine.
The result you are sighting was proven. But my assumptions that immigration is not fully counted and can skew the results another way is also true.
I have not read your study. The researchers should be adding a disclaimer that their data is not complete, that there are other factors, that while they found what they thought to be true was found it is not necessarily conclusive. LIKE ANY OTHER RESEARCERS WHO ARE NOT POLITICAL TOOLS. I am NOT saying they are political tools. I am saying such a disclaimer in their words not mine needed to be included. Good research is not considered conclusive. It is a hypothesis to be proven wrong later perhaps. It remains a hypothesis.
Remember what they say about stats. Lies, damned lies, statistics. My point that not everything is counted in their statistics is very problematic.
Bernsteins was still there (on Essex St) when I attended graduate school (early 80s)! Twice a week I had night classes with a 2 hour break between them, so I and a friend or two, would sometimes hop over for a quick DELICIOUS dinner. Best pastrami I’ve ever had and haven’t found anything close to it in the 40 years since. Great Chinese food, wonderful eggrolls, etc.
When Bernsteins was too crowded for quick service, we would go to Grand Street Deli instead, but that was clearly a lesser deli.
Like its legendary department stores, New York has lost most of its kosher and kosher-style delis over the years. Over the past couple of years the Stage and Carnegie delis both bit the dust. Jay & Lloyd’s in Brooklyn was a COVID victim. Katz’s was my go-to place until a recent meal had me cross them off the list (too much fat on the meat and, considering a sandwich is now around $25, they have all of a sudden started to charge for a single pickle spear). The 2nd Avenue Deli has been reincarnated off of Second Avenue and, while their sandwiches are fine, their potato pancakes are lousy (and expensive to-boot).
For those rugged individualists who want to try a real kosher deli, that leaves Gottlieb’s in Brooklyn’s Williamsburg section. The food is good (as are the cheese rugelach and challah in the local bakeries), but you’ll likely stand out as the only one dressed in 20th century clothing as well as not being fluent in Yiddish. (I learned of this place which supervising the installation of a diesel generator for B&H Photo - but that’s a story for another day)
