Reply #26: Oh, I'm not saying your questions are "wrong"

Was just pointing out that because of the way the questions are phrased, only 1 indicates that going negative is a "losing" strategy, while at least 2, or 3 if you count "other" imply a winning strategy. Therefore, the sum of those who think it's a winning strategy but have different reasons for thinking so are split, and appear to be falling behind in the poll by a larger margin than their sum would indicate.

I guess you'd have to come up with two ways it's a losing strategy to weight it evenly.
