Link Salad, Rotary Day Edition
Sep. 18th, 2012 09:16 amA bit of a target-rich environment today, so have a few links to shoot at:
A) So, Mitt Romney said that the 47% of Americans who don't pay income tax are parasites and dependent on government. They should "take personal responsibility" for themselves. Well, first off, most of those pay payroll taxes, and those that don't are mostly retired. Oh, and they mostly live in states that tend to vote Republican.
B) Lessons learned, or how paying for labor can be a good idea.
C) Paper books aren't dead yet, and soon you'll be able to get one hot off the press at your local drugstore.
D) From Charles Sheehan-Miles, an interesting article about why the US military is fighting with the NRA.
E) An economic analysis of the voter fraud fantasy.
F) Apropos of last night's entry, Jo Walton and Neil Gaiman's take on Russell's novel Wasp.
