Educational_Attainment
                        Educational Attainment study based on data from
                        the National Longitudinal Study of Youth (NLSY,
                        1979) survey.
Policy_Opinion          Data contains public opinion on the proposal to
                        raise federal income taxes for couples
                        (individuals) earning more than $250,000
                        ($200,000) per year and a host of other
                        covariates. The data is taken from the
                        2010-2012 American National Election Studies
                        (ANES) on the Evaluation of Government and
