If we assume that people always lie when surveyed, then what do we have?

I think it’s a human compulsion to take any fun opportunity to lie when you can’t possibly get caught out, and even if you were caught there’s no consequences. Well I take these opportunities for what they are, so there.

Besides I hate being annoyed by people that only have their own good will in mind, and at my expense. They deserve lies.

But assuming the usual distribution of human nature with regards to mushrooms and honesty, one would have to guess that survey results have a mix of a correlation and anti correlation to the hidden truth that can never be known.

Until of course the question becomes fact, after the fact. Then of course your survey company figures out the truth function and applies that to all future results, because the truth function never changes.

Lol.
