#2 Given how many cities and counties seem to push chrome projects on bond issues while ignoring basic infrastructure till it bites them in the a$$, I'd say a lot of the sitting members of local/state/fed government should have to play city building sims just to grasp the fundamentals.

#3 Whoa, Herman's plan was developed by erotic dancer JESSICA ALBA [Sin City]?

#4 I have always maintained that a candidate for public office should demonstrate they can successfully play SimCity. One thing the game teaches you is how quickly you can dig a deep, deep hole by borrowing money. Unlike voters, arithmetic cannot be fooled.

#5 Harrisburg, the capital of Pennsylvania, just declared bankruptcy. They should have tried a little SimCity before going off on their harebrained Green scheme.

#6 Just ask Jeff Tweedy (WILCO) about "Nein! Nein; Nein??" One of his best tunes.

Cain should adopt the tune's chorus, with Jeff's permish, of course. Achtung, Baby!
