It's Money That Matters
Topic: Society 7:11 am EST, Mar  1, 2010

Jenna Russell:

It is economic inequality, not overall wealth or cultural differences, that fosters societal breakdown, by boosting insecurity and anxiety, which leads to divisive prejudice between the classes, rampant consumerism, and all manner of mental and physical suffering.

Jules Dupuit:

Having refused the poor what is necessary, they give the rich what is superfluous.

Decius:

Paul Graham asks what living in your city tells you. Living in the north Perimeter area for 6 odd years now has told me that everybody makes way, way more money than I do. It's not inspiring so much as it makes you sympathize with class warfare.

Decius:

Money for me, databases for you.

Alon Halevy, Peter Norvig, and Fernando Pereira:

Follow the data.

Bird and Fortune:

They thought that if they had a bigger mortgage they could get a bigger house. They thought if they had a bigger house, they would be happy. It's pathetic. I've got four houses and I'm not happy.
