ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS
Public policies are determined and laws are made by small minorities playing upon the fears and imbecilities of the mob – sometimes minorities of intelligent and honest men, but usually minorities of rogues.

Alternatives to austerity
I love the restuarant analogy at the end.
"He used the metaphor of a restaurant patron who discovers that he doesn’t have enough money to pay the bill. No problem. Just keep ordering more food! That way you can put off the moment of reckoning. That is not a practical solution for irresponsible customers or countries who have gone too far." excellent reading.

CARPE DIEM: Manufacturing Job Gains Continue to Lead
Good News. This is even better than first appearances due to the fact that manufacturing productivity gains have outstripped the economy as a whole as well. Increase in both factors have a multiplier effect on the output of the manufacturing sector. The only reason that manufacturing is not growing faster as a percentage of the overall economy is that due to all the productivity gains the prices charged are dropping per unit of output. This has a beneficial effect of helping to reduce inflation in the aggregate.

Dianne Feinstein: 'Just Say No' Is the Solution to Prohibition-Related Violence - Hit & Run : Reason.com
If prohibition is such a good idea we should prohibit ALL activities that lead to crime or unhealty outcomes: Alchol, Tobacco, Sugar, High Fat foods, Cars, Wealth..... Why not acknowledge that you can eliminate the incentives for crime by legalizing victimless crimes, taxing and regulating the activities, and using the proceeds for education and rehabilitation.

A Bad Ranking for UNC
One of the best fact based assessments of the status of public education in North Carolina. I wonder how private institutions hold up to national competition.
