From what I seen, not really. Best way is exprimentating with tax rates by trying the following tax rates 16%, 20%, 23%, 25% and 28%. If your population is quite happy, you can usually get away with highest tax. (as the game works, happier the people are... the more they earn. But their happiness decreases with high taxes). I went with 28% rather early on, as I found nice resources right away.


I really don't think you know what a Laffer Curve is then. The general premise of the Laffer Curve is that the lower the tax, the more incentive to work, and the higher the tax, less incentive to work--which in this case, is indicated by happiness. At a lower tax rate, more revenue can possibly be gained because people are making more money which is being taxed. Thus, there is a tax rate at which the optimal amount of revenue can be obtained. Elementary, really.

5. ||board/3rd incarnation-style drama. It's why I went into hiding for a year and a half.

328. ||board's drama and most of the members there

337. People not reading all the posts in a thread.

Note to self: Princeton Review sucks. If the multiple choice is as easy as it is in that book, and if the free response is as easy as it has been in the past, why on earth do so few people get 5s on Physics C? The level of calculus on the test is low enough, and the material isn't that bad at all. And they claim that 75% correct on the test is a 5. What nonsense is this? That seems like one messed-up curve to me.

Economic Left/Right: -1.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -7.54

That seems about right, I guess.

It was a Dominant, too. They tend to be expensive. It's still connected, but the metal outside has come apart at one point. Is it okay to just keep playing with it until it snaps completely? Anyone know a good place online for strings? I probably will want a full A-D-G-C set as well, for spares. I really hate Red Label strings though. They suck.

20-30 hours. But 6 to 8 hours is a good norm. 4 hours is too little though.

344. People who come into the university tutoring department and have no brains whatsoever. You know, the type who can't even add zero to a number or multiply by one, yet the moronic academic advisors put them into calculus.

Aren't there placement tests? Or maybe they need tutoring, which would of course be ridiculous.
