By asking the preceding questions, specify what, if anything, is wrong with the following statistical generalizations:
1. This philosophy class is about logic, so most philosophy classes are probably about logic.
2. Most college students like to ski, because I asked a lot of students at several colleges in the Rocky Mountains, and most of them like to ski.
3. K-Mart asked all of their customers throughout the country whether they prefer K-Mart to Walmart, and 90 percent said they did, so 90 percent of all shoppers in the country prefer K-Mart.
4. A Swede stole my bicycle, so most Swedes are thieves.
5. I've never tried it before, but I just put a kiwi fruit in a tub of water. It floated. So most kiwi fruits float in water.
6. I have lots of friends. Most of them think that I would make a great president. So most Americans would probably agree.
7. In exit polls after people had just voted, most people told our candidate that they voted for her, so probably most people did vote for her.
8. Mary told me that all of her older children are geniuses, so her baby will probably be a genius, too.
9. When asked whether they would prefer a tax break or a bloated budget, almost everyone said that they wanted a tax break. So a tax break is overwhelmingly popular with the people.
10. When hundreds of convicted murderers in states without the death penalty were asked whether they would have committed the murder if the state had a death penalty, most of them said that they would not have done it. So most murders can be deterred by the death penalty.
