peer agreement (net): +3public sentiment Explanation: I understand how "public opinion" could work here. I'm offering my alternative for consideration as well, while I look for supporting evidence for each. You can find examples of "public sentiment" in your context at the link below. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 21 mins (2011-02-13 23:57:02 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Some small support for "public sentiment" -- compare the Danish and English at pages 65 and 200, respectively, at http://vbn.aau.dk/files/17189580/Balder_samlet.pdf: "Det var i et forsøg på at tilfredsstille folkestemningen og samle de borgerlige vælgere, at Venstreregeringen gennemførte skattelettelserne." "The tax reduction wasn’t an attempt to prevent a slump, it was an attempt to oblige public sentiment, and was soon followed by an election." Reference: http://tinyurl.com/67yopbe |
