I love a Harper’s Index. Even moreso when it’s an aggregate like this one. Full of gems such as:
Portion of all U.S. income gains during the Bush Administration that have gone to the top 1 percent of earners: 3/4
Amount the Justice Department spent in 2001 installing curtains to cover two seminude statues of Justice: $8,650
Total value of U.S. government contracts in 2000 that were awarded without competitive bidding: $73,000,000,000
Total in 2007: $146,000,000,000
