- Congrats to the Detroit Red Wings on their Stanley Cup win. Not bad for a bunch of guys that were too old, slow, and European to win the Cup.
- I’m having a ton of fun with Political Calculations’ newest tool, Build Your Own Income Tax. After losing the code to an errant USB drive, they recoded it and it’s back. Apparently, a tax that has a 0% rate to three times the poverty line, taxes at 20% from that point to $250k and 30% above that will bring in the same amount of tax as the current Code. Oh, and be a whole lot less confusing. Everybody wins (except the special interests that carved out their own provisions, of course)!
- The NY Times says diesel is coming back in a big way. I can’t wait. If VWoA had their crap together and had a diesel Jetta for sale I never would have been at a Saturn dealership this fall. Bring on the Peugeots!
- The one page resume is a myth unless you’re a college student. Just go with it.
Back next week.
