There are some really interesting maps here, but the one that made me say "whut?" was the "highest paid public employee by state" map. http://www.realfarmacy.com/40-maps-that-will-help-you-make-sense-of-the-world/
Holy hell. It's like giving a loaded gun to a chimpanzee...
the last thing you need is rabies. You're already angry enough as it is.OTOH, there wouldn't be a tweeker left in Georgia...
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE! AND THROW SOME STEAK ON THE GRILL!
Schools have become a life suppport system for sports programs.
I'm not against school sports but IMO way too much pressure is put on the athletes. I know very few people that played even high school sports that don't have some permanent reminder. Knees, ankles, backs... and for what?The school system that gets my tax money has a big fancy gym/basketball arena, very nice football/baseball/track facility but eliminated the all the art programs. Hell the only reason they have a music program is so they can have a band at the football games.
That is all. *expletive deleted*ck you all, eat *expletive deleted*it, and die in a fire. I have considered writing here a long parting section dedicated to each poster, but I have decided, at length, against it. *expletive deleted*ck you all and Hail Satan.
Anytime you have a sport that could potentially lead to a career, there will be people who take it very seriously. Most of those public employees are college football coaches. Many of those programs are self sufficient. Maybe not the entire athletic program, but football itself often is.
What got me was the world map with the circle that said more poeple live in that circle than outside of it. The other one was the one putting the enitre world population into one area if it was at the same population density of certain cities. Made you realize that while there are a lot of people, it could be worse.
Makes one wonder what OTHER kinds of alarmist politically tainted science will seem "quaint" in another 20-30 years.
Looking again at public employees, why do both North and South Dakota have medical schools? I didn't think those states were that big.
Having a medical school doesn't mean that you're training doctors/surgeons there. We have a huge need for nurses, trauma techs, etc... It's easier to get them if you train them locally.
