POPSCHIP Mr. Barton equates the two by comparing a city the size of Ithaca, N.Y., to the continent of Europe. “Ithaca is quite complex in its own right if you think of all that goes on,” he said. “If we scale up the population to 730 million, we come to Europe as about the right size. Now take Europe and shrink it until it all fits in about the same land mass as Ithaca.” http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/17/technology/companies/17chip.html?partner=permalink&exprod=permalink

POPSHunger on The Increase in the USA One of the biggest myths about the USA is that it's a land of plenty enjoyed by all. But last year 36 million Americans went hungry without access to food. Many of them were children. Yet during the last 7 years the wealthiest among us knew enormous economic growth. Those who thought that the Lord of the manor was disposed to throw the remains of the meal to the serfs were kidding themselves. When possible they will consume every last morsel. Trickle down economics is a mere talking point when in fact the spigot is mostly turned off.

POPSAdmirals, generals: Let gays serve openly The issue of gays in the military became a flash point early in the Clinton administration as Clinton tried to fulfill a campaign promise to end the military's ban on gays. His efforts created the current compromise policy — ending the ban but prohibiting active-duty service members from openly acknowledging they are gay. But it came at a political cost. The resulting debate divided service members and veterans, put Democrats on the defensive and provided cannon fodder for social conservatives and Republican critics who questioned Clinton's patriotism and standing with the military.

POPSHalf of Primary Care Doctors in U.S. Would Leave Medicine Welcome to the world of Obama. Look to Canada for a good example of national medicine. Half of their primary card doctors left... Canada, and began their practice in the U.S. That left Canadians with too few doctors. Want to see a doc in Canada? Wait for a year, and end up with a Pakistani doctor and no other alternatives. Need an MRI? There is a 2 year wait. This is what Obamamania has in mind for you. You voted for him. You got him.

POPSVideo: How Obama Got Elected It's depressing that over half of those interviewed have a college degree. An American citizen should know a little more about his country and his candidates before they cast their all important votes. Uninformed citizens = self-serving, uninformed representatives.
