Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Anyway, even assuming a varying cost of living in different places in the US, there's still a federal poverty line that doesn't count any of that in the lower 48. [link] So that single person making less than $10K will still get way more benefit from the grand than I'm hurt by losing it.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
When I was in college, there was a philosphy/theology course requirement. You had to take one course in each, plus a third from either. By the time I got done with one semester of philosophy I knew that my agnostic self would be taking theology as my elective. Bozhe moi!
Which reminds me -- Nutty -- you need to learn how to get the cheetah to come to you.
You could install a ceiling fan in the squash court, and then lie in wait under a bed. The cheetah will come...
the well-documented readiness of the Bush administration to manipulate and suppress scientific findings - manifestly to appease industrial interests and religious constituencies.
The problem I have with Professor Swinburne's little intellectual exercise is that the jackass in the White House will take it as proof that that God really exists, and supports the war in Iraq.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If I have 10 & you have 5, the next 1 means more to you - basically. But if I need 20 to feed my family, Oxfam doesn't get that found buck. My whole entire OVERINSPECTED snark was based on the local variability of that 20, Jesse.
Surely that's clear by now.
