Statist

Anyone holding the paradoxical belief that people are more competent to govern each other than they are to make individual choices.

"They either want a war on drugs or a war on guns or a war on speech or a war on business. Stupid statists."

Student 2: "...What? Why are you excited!?"

statistics

The study of percentages, bars, graphs, and charts, all in an attempt to make some sort of logical conclusion out of a bunch of numbers so that even more percentages, bars, graphs, and charts can be made.

Statistics may not be of practical use in everyday life, unless you own a casino.
