If all people I work with are left-handed does that mean all left-handed people work with me?
I am posting this in this section for a reason.
Think about it.
AnotherMT - You'll have to check out some of the other questions in this section, it's about the kind of "logic" used here.
If I say all X's are Y's does that imply all Y's are X's?
Think about it, then check out some of the "arguments" used in the questions in this section.
It's not THAT deep, people.
Anyone getting it yet?
What if we play a little game where we substitute a word frequently used in this section for "people that are left handed" and the KIND of person they are for "people I work with"?
Is the light going on yet?
Bueller?
Anyone?
xavasia - LOL
Give them a little time yet, I gave them quite a few hints.......
So -- we should deport ALL illegal immigrants because there are a few idiots out there?
I grant that this "logic" is ALSO used to make the argument "all illegal immigrants are only looking for a better life" as well.
My point is this: There is no one-size fits all approach to solving our "problem". Not every statement made about illegal immigration applies to everyone.
I'm sure I'm still confusing 99% of the people here.

Wow, people really don't get it, with the exception of a select few. I tried to think down to their level, but my brain hurts now. I'm going to lie down... Good luck in educating the masses of yahoo answers.

If you work with the WHOLE WORLD for a living, then it's possible to work with "all left-handed people."
But if you work in one place, i.e. an office, then "all the people you work with are left-handed."

Nope. I know several lefties who most likely don't work with you. Is this for a philosophy assignment?
