Carnival Monday!

The Carnival of the Capitalists is up. Head on over to the Mighty Bargain Hunter for a generous helping of financial advice, insight and ideas. With some three dozen entries, there's bound to be something you can use.

Two items stood out for me this week: The aptly named Jon Swift suggests lowering the minimum wage (both here and in Lilliput, one presumes). And Joe Kristan reports on Iowa's move to bring a little Hollywood to the bread-basket.
