The real question is do you give as much thought to articles you agree with initially? (spoilers - none of us do)

I dunno, because in order to know that I would need to read an article I initially agreed with and I don't think that that ever happens.

For instance, I do generally agree with this PhD student over this undergrad student but I also do not find his argument compelling because the way that his citation coded income is very flawed. I don't think its a slam dunk case at all, because the way it coded net debtors wealth and it uses mean instead of median which we all know is bad practice for datasets where the tails might skew our results (and income and wealth are the two best examples of that I can think of)
