I used my former Morgan County, Ohio location vs Haywood County, NC and it seemed to leave some things (Dentistry, for example, about 2 times more costly here than where I used to live and supposedly I need just $9 more per year to make up the difference). You can look at other things apparently, but I didn't play with those sections of the website.

I think I'll report you to the Wealth Nazis at Spreadthewealth.com Wait for the knock at 3 AM. The "website" is a hoax in case anyone thinks I may be the slightest bit serious.

Wait for the knock at 3 AM.

The “website” is a hoax in case anyone thinks I may be the slightest bit serious.

Often the author would use the name of some one prominent rather than their own. For the person named it was apocryphal. Often the term "pseudo" was used, as in "Pseudo-Peter" to refer to the writer when the actual author is now unknown. I know Lincoln never said much of what was attributed to him.

We need to stop the current political process of collecting interest groups like Pokemon cards. There may be more than one right answer to our problems, but thre are certainly wrong ones. We need to start telling people how their answers are wrong (and have the humility to admit when our answers are wrong). Stop trying to woo Hispanics and the poor and instead show them how the liberal's immigration and welfare policies hurt them. Maybe then we can end the current scrum around the trough of federal dollars. Maybe they're right and it's too late. In that case my Celtic ancestry says it's time to strip naked, paint yourself blue, light your hair on fire and charge screaming to Glory.
