Interesting that the drop in support for overturning is greater than the rise in opposition. That just margin of error, do you think, or is there an expanding middle-ground?
 
Or "Oh no, abortion, please leave me alone". The article even seems to support this:

Abortion seems to become less important of an issue to people.
 
On the tenth anniversary of the 2003 Canberra bushfires, a graphic of the progress of the fires:

2003_bushfire_progress-MJC.gif


This is the Australian Capital Territory and the surrounding area of New South Wales. Everything that isn't the defined yellow urban area of Canberra itself is basically bushland.

The colour coding is a bit off - obviously only the leading eastern edge was burning at any one point. And the fire did encroach into actual suburb, which isn't shown in this animation. About 500 homes were burned, 4 people killed.

In the spoiler is a larger and more detailed but not animated map:

for the record I live just below the 'N' in North Canberra.
 
"The eastern area of China burns 40% of China's coal"

Depending on their definition of eastern area, that is remarkably little, since basically everyone lives in the eastern part of China.
 
Why do poor people experience little or no decline in their income when they age? Because they're already making minimum wage (or close to that)? Because a large part of their income is government transfers? Or just the particularities of their jobs?
 
The people at the bottom have little money income to begin with. Social security isn't much changed from other income support or jobs not far from minimum wage, or jobs less than full time.

It could also just be that the line is so small that you can't really see the variation in the line. Maybe if they were indexed to 100 it would be easier to compare the change.

Although I should also point out that the people age 19 in the bottom decile aren't necessarily going to be in the bottom decile at age 75, so it's not really tracking their income over their lifetimes anyway...

Good point.
 

Legend:

Big red symbol: 10 million - 15 million
Purple symbol: 5,050 million - 10 million
Small blue symbol: 20,500 million - 5,0450 million

WHAT?!?!?! It doesn't make sense?!?!

But it has lots of cute little smokestacks and some arrows and stuff. So you get the idea anyway. ;)
 
My guess is what they mean is something like:

Big red symbol: 10 million - 15 million
Purple symbol: 5 million - 10 million
Small blue symbol: 20 thousand - 5 million
 
Your basic model of the government should be that it's an insurance company with an army.
