The folks at the Census Bureau have just finished compiling the most recent data on income distribution. I'm betting that the following chart will get a lot of political play: Yes, median real household income was lower last year than in 2000. And yes, it has in fact grown somewhat in the past few years. My two [...]- Derick Valadao said: This is an interesting article. To sum up, while the "median" voter is getting richer, the poverty line isn't so clear cut.

Here’s an ad—of hot young people drinking and having a good time. But then they drink more and more, and things go downhill… This is the sort of ad we should be running in the US: It admits that drinking alcohol can be really fun, in moderation.
