I think it's along the lines of where your attitude flips from "it could be worse" to "it could be better". Buying a better car/house is nice, but not as awesome as your first car/house. Diminishing returns, essentially.

I don't understand... the Amazon Prime price for everything is the same, except for AK and HI.

Amazon's warehouses are distributed so that all warehouses are the exact same distance from any house in the lower forty-eight.

Or not.

I wonder how NY would look if it were separated into NYC and the rest of the state. Or California into greater Los Angeles, greater San Francisco, and everything else.

Coal isn't going away, and you can't blame it all on China. Many third world countries are increasing coal burning, even if they have to buy it from exporting countries, because it's cheaper.

Go to college, they said, you'll make more money they said

If we educate our society we will all be rich they said

"The most educated generation in history is on track to becoming less prosperous, at least financially, than its predecessors."

Welcome to the new era; your Uber driver has an Masters in Psychology and cannot get an office job for shit because there are thousands of MS Psychs just like him/her.

They stressed education and competition because they charge you for it.
The real path to better living for the masses, is cooperation and solidarity.

EARNING MUCH LESS, DESPITE MORE EDUCATION
Sheez... "median" statistics used by a Wall Street financier whose final goals
are reducing entitlements and the federal debt, and who makes no mention
of the effect of the 2008 disaster due to the banking industry's fraudulent
manipulation of "derivatives", with their impact of subsequent high levels of
unemployment and/or under-employment for the next 7 years.

Table 440:
Distribution of earnings and median earnings of persons 25 years old and over,
by highest level of educational attainment and sex: 2011

How do they determine the highest level of sex? Frequency? Variety? Closest to a pig's 30 minute orgasm?
