What you're telling me is that you're absolutely unable to discern between a logical argument and a data-based argument.

No, that's not what I'm telling you.

Do you know what logic is? Can you reason? Can you understand ideas such as consequences, costs, incentives, and so on?

Sure, I understand the simple hypothesis you put forward earlier. It even makes sense that it might be true. However, in the real world where people belong to, and make up, complex, chaotic, and difficult to understand systems, the simple hypothesis which makes sense is not always true. Often, counter-intuitive causes and effects are found. Evidence is required.

Without evidence, all you have is an unsupported hypothesis. You assume that it's true. You are not the logical person you think you are. Your attitude hinders your ability to understand the world around you.
