Fact Checking LeeBitch

This isn't a callout, but rather taking something out of the peanut gallery where it doesn't belong.

"Lee just tried to use the Heritage Foundation as a source of "fact""

You just used a strawman attack to discount a fact.   You fail rational thought forever.   You're no different than a bible thumper who uses the crimes of atheist serial killers as a way to "debunk atheism".     Can you disprove that 75% of all Americans do not live in the suburbs without using a strawman tactic?  Exactly.

For starters I don't accept your strawman that suburbs = spoiled rich kids:

In fact more poor people live in the suburbs than the cities now:

And this study claims 26% in suburbs, and the author isn't tasked with promoting right-wing ideology
