Hypothesis: Smoking is a function of one’s income level (a proxy for health

Hypothesis: A higher level of economic development produces greater support for
civil liberties. (Or, does the relation run in the other direction?)
Hypothesis: Students who study more perform better in their courses.
Hypothesis: Voter turnout is higher among older people than it is
among younger people.
Hypothesis: Political Activists are more likely to turnout to vote.
Hypothesis: Collective bargaining bolsters economic welfare for the middle class.
Hypothesis: Support for gun control is higher among Democrats than among
Republicans.
Hypothesis: Smoking is higher among low income groups (a proxy for health
sophistication).
Hypothesis: A higher level of economic development produces greater support
for civil liberties. (Or, does the relation run in the other direction?)
Hypothesis: Collective bargaining bolsters economic welfare for the middle class.
