It's a mystery to me why Slog journalists keep reporting decreases in unemployment rate when the employment rate doesn't change, and hasn't significantly changed since the bottom of the "recession": http://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS123000…
What also should have been in the stranger news is an accident this morning on 99N that happened a little after 6am that massively tied up traffic not just on 99N but traffic getting out of West Seattle. And a tow truck couldn't get to the scene until around 8:40am or so---unacceptable in a so-called major city.
It makes a lot of sense for the government to just nationalize an industry if the only way private companies will do the work involves massive government subsidies.

Nelson Mandela was a heterosexual alpha male who married a girl 18 years younger than himself.
So why is SLOG in tears?!
