coderman: i'd like to see this further revised according to net urban density.
seti: that would essentially compare square meters per square meter across various urban areas. spoiler: pretty strong correlation
coderman: what would the comparison look like if all the gas guzzlers where gone? i'm sure americans drive more than other nations, but i'm not sure it's as much more as these graphs indicate (even accounting for urban sprawl in houston and phoenix, etc)
quasim8r: <ASH> it'd look an awful lot like this
quasim8r: c also
quasim8r: actually, i lied .. those are what it looks like now ... :)
quasim8r: If this ain?t a cure for a friday night alone at home, I don?t know what is

coderman: if you like chaos in the budget and public staffing that is leveraged to trend overall taxation downward this is a feature.

coderman: "The best among them ... compete in a contest that mixes the intensity and precision of figure skating with the pit-stop drama of a car race. Contestants show up with flashy attire, music play lists and well-timed patter. They fire up $9,000 semi-automatic machines and play them like rock stars, wowing adoring fans."

anomie: yay
anomie: Harmon recalls, "A couple came into my office once with a yellow pad of their teenage son's questions. One of them was: 'What is that guy doing hanging up there on the plus sign?' "
coderman: "Baptists, 15.8% of those surveyed, are down from 19.3% in 1990" - THANK GOD! OR WHOEVER!
coderman: (sorry, my young years in south carolina jaded me...)

"The interest on the debt--the debt that Ronald Reagan promised, if he was elected, he would end--is so great now that it equals all of the money that will be withheld from your paycheck in January, February, March, April and part of May. All of the rest of the income taxes you will pay for the year go to war. They go to the Pentagon budget."

seti: "Remember, the war in Iraq and the war in Afghanistan are not on the regular budget. They go to the Energy Department, which is the bomb-making division of the military. And they go to Veterans Affairs, paying for past wars. And as Joe Stiglitz pointed out, in terms of personnel costs, the peak year for World War II was 1993."
