wiegie Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 So, two days ago I was skimming through the radio stations on my way home from school and happened upon NPR. I've never been a big NPR fan, but since I know some of you listen to it, I though I might give it a try. I tuned in just as this interview was starting: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.p...toryId=10357966 Please listen to the interview (it is very boring but not too long) and then read my next post in this thread.

H8tank Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 wedgie, why are you wasting my time? In 2004 all federal spending for public broadcasting amounted to approximately $500 million. This is approximately $1.70 per person in the United States. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiegie Posted May 25, 2007 Author Share Posted May 25, 2007 wedgie, why are you wasting my time? The way I figure it, distracting you from whatever it was that you might have been doing prior to getting distracted almost certainly will result in a net gain for society.

What the hell kind of economist can't get at least a net-net result? Pfft. Just "net." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
