Mike's Blog Round Up
December 28, 2013

Vagabond Scholar: For the best blog posts of the year chosen by the bloggers themselves, you have to read the Jon Swift Memorial Round Up 2013.

The Moderate Voice: Florida will soon pass New York as America’s third most populous state.

Burnt Orange Report: The City of Houston is being sued after denying benefits to same-sex couples.

Econ Browser: The triumph of Tory austerity in the UK? Not so much.

Liberaland: For America’s mega-rich sheltering billions from Uncle Sam, South Dakota is the new Cayman Islands.

Speaking of which, your quote of the day:
“I don't pay more than are legally due and frankly if I had paid more than are legally due I don't think I'd be qualified to become president. I'd think people would want me to follow the law and pay only what the tax code requires.” (Mitt Romney, July 29, 2012.)
