Income Inequality Map

Income Inequality Map and Other Clippings

Settling into the new home and completely changed lifestyle -- small kids are now a daily factor. Gearing up for a big pre-Ames week. Missing Ames proper due to family stuff -- mom and dad's 50th is the same day.

As you may have gathered the laptop was saved, as was most of the data. Some of the inbox was lost so if you've written my lately you may need to remind me again.

Here's a few quick links to start the day.

  • A map of income inequality in the U.S. of A. Things that stand out to me: 1) Johnson County in dark red as by far the highest income inequality in the US. 2) The least income inequality is in the underpopulated dying rural ranch counties. Does less income mean less inequality? 3) Not necessarily. The highest inequality levels are in racially polarized areas like the souther black belt and the lower Rio Grande.

  • A look at Obama's age and experience compared to past presidential candidates.

  • Jerome Armstrong ranks the best Dem YouTube vids with the Hillary Sopranos spoof getting the top nod.

  • The Yearly Kos Political Pub Quiz was a killer.

  • And Cook's Political Report rates the top competitive house races at this early juncture. No Iowans.
