no clue. I used to get wonkblog via reader, but that stopped and I’m too lazy to go read all of the sites I skimmed in reader.
Interesting article though. I’d be interested in one number they didn’t seem to publish — I’m curious about the relative savings of someone who moved up the ladder vs. someone who started there.

I’m actually amazed that 4% make it to the top. The bottom tier has a ton stacked against it. I’m actually more interested in the ability for the 2nd quintile to move.
