This might be a way to save the U.S. Postal Service and revitalize poor neighborhoods. Imagine if the post office were allowed to operate as a micro bank. People could invest dollars from their pay checks and also take out micro loans to start micro businesses in places where capital normally flees....I'd invest a couple bucks a week, but even if it was just those neighborhoods investing (and making board decisiosn of who to make loans to), this would be a success.

Cool vs. Hot....? Or, something else?
Carolyn C.'s comment,

This issue is more than hot verses cold, it was was simply just that Louisiana would probably win because most people do not like the consistent cold weather. Maybe it has to do with the fact that Louisiana is in the top 10 states for the death penalty. I could be stereotyping but I think people are more outdoorsy and active in Maine. It is a fact that in places with warmer weather people tend to want to sit around and relax more. Louisiana is 25th in the U.S. for dense population (number one being the most populated) and Maine is number 42, I'm sure that has something to do with it as well. The article also stated, “Vermont has pioneered in areas of restorative justice, and does a great job providing an alternative to incarceration, which helps to keep the number of incarcerations low in our state.” This is also similar to Maine. I'm sure there are many factors why this is so but these are just a few.
