Steve Ballmer creates fascinating data trove

USAfacts.org

Awesome site. Already spent an hour perusing the data. The New York Times has a good article about this initiative.

In an age of fake news and questions about how politicians and others manipulate data to fit their biases, Mr. Ballmer’s project may serve as a powerful antidote. Using his website, USAFacts.org, a person could look up just about anything: How much revenue do airports take in and spend? What percentage of overall tax revenue is paid by corporations? At the very least, it could settle a lot of bets made during public policy debates at the dinner table.
