    GDP C : The simulated gross domestic product for macroeconomic policy C from its

    hypothetical' inception in year 0 until the year 20XX

    Real data only available for GDP curr up to year 2011. Of course if you are critical, there arealways validity and reliability issues with any secondary data.

    Simulated data for GDP A , GDP B , and GDP C; and even for GDP curr after 2011 to 20XX

    Hypothesis:GDP A should be the highest GDP, compared to other GDPs i.e. GDP Curr , GDP

    B and GDP C

    Statistical Operationalization of Hypothesis Why dont you think about it.

    We will begin our class from this point Students must not be fooled and humbled by so called sophisticated mathematical and

    statistical techniques. Even the most sophisticated techniques i.e. techniques approaching the

    level of rocket science can be simplified

    Hint: If you are pathetic, clueless and just don't know what to do... why not you look at Chapter10 - Comparing Several Means ANOVA GLM 1 of this book:

    Caveat: your Economics lecturer, associate professor or professor may not agree with thisapproach; but you should not believe them... because according to Karl Popper:

    Science does not ask how the scienti st has got his ideas; it is only interested in arguments that

    can be tested by everybody.

    Adapted from Karl Popper (1945) Open Society and Its Enemies Volume II Chapter 11Section 2
