1. WOW!
It's interesting to see the changes in median income in our area. The "rich" areas have seen a 10% increase in median income since 2000, while my working class neighborhood has a seen a 39% drop. Yep, those Bush tax cuts worked great for the middle-class....NOT!

5. I was just letting the pointer fall on county's across the country and more than
half of the 60 or so I stopped at had negative growth of more than 5%

This country is fucked. We can't possible survive with this kind of anemic growth or "grow" our way out of the deficit...

10. How about 75%+ in an area of downtown Denver
That shocked the heck out of me. Some ritzy condos there, I guess.

That really shocks me.
