The legacy of Reagan economics ... next stop banana republic ...

The average middle-income American family had about $9,000 less after-tax income in 2007, and an average household in the top 1 percent had $741,000 more, than they would have had if the 1979 income distribution had remained. SOURCE. See Will Hutton’s talk and book titled Them and Us.

So I think I will do this ...

Maybe you have seen my Twitter-based micropublishing effort titled MailTip. Well, I have established an efficient workflow for it and started looking around for another similar possibility. Reading a review for some iPad apps the other day, I realized that I was reading them regularly, so why not post the best that I find? These apps can be pure delight in form and function. So here’s Apptwips at Twitter and at the blog where I place and index these for my future use. And yours. If you have an iPad or think about getting one (Do!), get my Twitter feed. Thanks!
