Compared to some of the most expensive housing in the USA? I'd bet more 2bd 2ba homes are sold <200k in the USA than the other way around by a long shot.

Situations like that cause people to be apathetic to moving up. That's the reason I think handouts are a blunt instrument and at most should be used sparingly.

The numbers indicate that the population has been growing increasingly unequal. Do you think the US has moved more towards free market capitalism or away from it? Does the result support your original argument?

Yes NWS has an API with quite a lot of data in XML format. Weather Underground api was supposed to shut off on December 31, but has been extended to Feb 15th of this year. Good riddance, it was very flaky, would return occasional bad data,

So people can donate to person X but if they don't claim it in time, the money is given away to all the other users that are using the service? That seems really shady to me that donations would be redirected like that. Either keep the

I assume there are many other places that are also "warm" and have english speakers, so it's presumably not that strange. What else is it you like about those places, that you'd singled them out?

That's right. If you disagree with it, the great thing is you're able to start your own business and run it the way you see fit. It's a lot easier to point out what businesses are doing wrong than to start and run your own &q

The argument is that building train lines isn't the answer because the transport needs in the U.S. are different than Japan, Indonesia, Germany, Russia, etc. Having a cookie cutter "trains are the answer to everything" answe

That's interesting, thanks for the detailed reply.My point was that their operating expenses are covered by fees for postage and not directly paid through taxes. But now I realize that this is more of a grey area than I had though.
