I received a link today from Co.Design Daily to an entertaining and informative interactive graphic about income disparity and how we all fit in and what to do about it. Most people just can't grasp where they are on the income disparity spectrum and how and why they got there or know that it can be fixed. I'm talking about all your friends and relatives who earn less than $40,000.00 but constantly vote against their best interests. SEND THEM THIS LINK!! I know, I know, nothing will overcome hard core beliefs based on fear rather than information and reason. But, it's worth a try.

The argument goes something like this: $1 invested in the S&P 500 in 1912 turned into more than $500 adjusted for inflation by 2012, but that 6.6% rate of return came with real GDP only running at a 3.5% clip annually. Gross says that âsomehow stockholders must be skimming 3% off the top each and every year, and that those profits must have come at the expense of lenders, laborers and the government.

I am not a financial wizard. I just have a small portfolio manages by a professional which I inherited. This way I have someone else to blame for making investment mistakes. The truth is I prefer concrete investments in things I can see and feel and I imagine I have control over - such as real estate and physical things that appreciate because they have intrinsic value are are useful for being productive (as in making things). Occasionally I'll take a dip into financial journals for sport, which I did this morning. I became interested not by the advice but by the confessions contained there in. Read More

Now OWS is launching the ROLLING JUBILEE, a program that has been in development for months. OWS is going to start buying distressed debt (medical bills, student loans, etc.) in order to forgive it. As a test run, we spent $500, which bought $14,000 of distressed debt. We then ERASED THAT DEBT. (If you’re a debt broker, once you own someone’s debt you can do whatever you want with it — traditionally, you hound debtors to their grave trying to collect. We’re playing a different game. A MORE AWESOME GAME.)

or any other hater, liar, abuser. I received this Simple Genius idea in my inbox today from Fast Company.

But what is the Internet, if not a vehicle for vigilante justice? After seeing the outpouring of hate on Twitter, five young Swedish designers decided to build a website that would leverage the power of the Interweb to defend Ocean. “We noticed that a lot of people sent just awful replies to Frank Ocean on Twitter, becoming sort of a dark Twitter-based undercurrent that only reached Mr. Ocean himself, unless you actively sought these people out,” explain the group’s leaders, Martin Löfqvist and Jacob Åström, over email. “And very few people did. We wanted to lift this rock and expose these people and their hateful messages to the world.”

I thought I'd take the liberty of posting a song written by Texas Singer Song Writer of 2001, Bob Cheevers - could be the theme song for Occupy Wall Street. He told me he wrote this a couple of days ago and I finally got around to listening to it this after noon and needed to share.

My son forward this http://www.recombinantrecords.net/... to me. I think it's important enough to pass along. When he was 4 or 5 we read Four Arguments For the Elimination of TV by Jerry Mander and then I read Neal Postman. I abandoned TV at that point in my life. Whenever I try to puzzle out what the heck is wrong in the here and now, when I see restaurants covered in TV set to FOX, I remember these books.

The Minnesota Independent reports that Bachman's district has the state's highest rate of foreclosures.

Now, as 2009 draws to a close, that trend continues. According to new data from HousingLink and county sheriffs’ offices, the Sixth Congressional District is being disproportionately impacted by the foreclosure crisis despite its representative’s reticence to vote for foreclosure relief legislation.

Bachmann’s district had 1,097 foreclosures in July, August and September of 2009, the highest in the state and almost three times as many as Rep. Tim Walz’s district, which had the state’s lowest number of foreclosures, at 396.

I was actually searching for LED Christmas ornaments today when I stumbled upon this website. It's full of all kinds of fun interactive toys but this History of Afghanistan should be required viewing. I don't know who Z Frank is but his blog says he

is a renaissance man for the digital era. He is at once a blogger, musician, humorist, public speaker, performance artist and adjunct professor. Not to mention the fact that he once studied neuroscience. He is a winner of a Webby Award for Best Personal Website, a site that includes interactive group projects, short films, animations, Flash-based games and a large, rabid fan base. Currently, he's a vlogger for Time.

I apologize in advance for the commercial that is embeded in this embed. It came with the territory. Anyway commercial + history lesson for today - The Graveyard of Empires....

That was the essence of the phone call I received this morning. My first reservation request was for a private room to hold a meeting to see if there was local support to run someone against Texas Rep Mike Connaway. Plot a revolution, if you will.

Michael Steel deserves an award for solving everything as uncovered by spencers mom on Think Progress.

Think Progress reports:

While hosting Bill Bennett’s radio show this morning, RNC Chairman Michael Steele fearmongered about a government-run "health police" that would force Americans to get their annual physicals. The way to solve the health care crisis, Steele said in another portion of the show, is "not that complicated": All we have to do is "figure out who" doesn’t have access to health care, "and give them access!"

STEELE: So if it’s a cost problem, it’s easy: Get the people in a room who have the most and the most direct impact on cost, and do the deal. Do the deal. It’s not that complicated.

If it’s an access question, people don’t have access to health care, then figure out who they are, and give them access! Hello?! Am I missing something here? If my friend Trevor has access to health care, and I don’t, why do I need to overhaul the entire system so I can get access he already has? why don’t you just focus on me and get me access
