I'm a big fan of Carl Sagan's Cosmos and this is pretty friggin' amazing.

George Will urges the U.S. Supreme Court to strike down an Illinois law that may be the next step in post-bailout, post-Kelo America: direct transfer of the profits of successful industries to the accounts of those that are failing. The Illinois law attempts to prop up the state’s sagging horse racing industry by requiring the state’s four most profitable casinos to simply hand over 3 percent of gross receipts to Illinois’ horse racing tracks. The bill was recently upheld by the state’s supreme court.

This is just one more example of individuals doing things better, cheaper and more efficiently than government.

Sorry for the lack of posts, ladies and gents. It's been a busy few months.
Here's a little something to tide you over.
