Add water, uranium and stir... by gimleteye

We have our own confusions at home, never mind the central banks: just read the Miami Herald over the past few days.

Maybe one of our readers who has appropriate software, can send us the following analysis to post as a flow chart.

Here is a short list of needs reported in various Herald stories (feel free to suggest additions to the list, in the comments section):

1) More water.
2) More tourists to generate more tax revenue, to pay for it.
3) The restored Everglades to supply our water.
4) More money to buy out land speculators, obstructing Everglades restoration.
5) Don’t pump sewage into the ocean, re-use it.
6) Don’t wait to find out if re-use water is clean enough to protect wetlands or people.
7) Foreign sand on our beaches to attract foreign tourists.
8) Revenue to buy sand because anything we put on our beaches is washing away.
9) Persuade foreign tourists our water is clean enough to drink.
10) More development to pay for cleaning water.
11) Open new land for development closer to the Everglades.
12) Nuclear power plants to power new development.
13) More water to cool new nuclear power plants.
14) Speculate with tax revenues (ie. State Investment Pool) to foster new development, fueled by nuclear power, to buy out speculators and pay for everything else.
15) No bailouts for speculators.
16) A baseball stadium, a soccer, stadium, a museum, a Carniverous Center for the Performing Arts, a streetcar, parking, and new nuclear power plants.
17) Water lawns once a week, buy hybrid cars.
18) More money from tourists.
19) No new taxes.
20) Pray for rain.

That about sums it up, for Thursday.
