2010 is the new date.  Personally I think all of you out there who want to go into space are crazy, but than again, I’m crazy too.  Just not like that.

Charging the tax payers double

March 27, 2008 · 1 Comment

A glimpse into what is systematically fucked up with America.  A monopoly printer for US government documents earned an extra $100 million in 16 months by charging the government over double the cost for printing blank pass ports.  Now, I’m not against people making money, but is this really the kind of thing that should be going on during an economic crisis unrivaled since the Great Depression.   This kind of thing is endemic throughout all levels of our government.  During prosperous times perhaps not so harmful.  But these are not such times.

GDP (gross domestic product) or GNH (gross national happiness)?

What’s the deal with Bhutan? A country where they measure success not by how much they produce as a country, but by how happy their people are. Sounds flakey, but they have some interesting ideas about money.
