According to a new WSJ/NBC News poll, “it’s time to dump every member of Congress.” The new poll asked voters how they’d vote if their ballot included the option to replace every member of Congress, including subbing-out their own representative. And, the ayes have it! 56% said they’d give the green light to cleaning house (well, both houses really). Support for the “replace them all’’ option ran the gamut of political spectra, drawing 55% of self-identified liberals, 55% of moderates and 58% of conservatives. Finally something we can all agree on. New Congress, 2012! Story via.

“Age of Wulin,” an MMORPG set in ancient China, hasn’t even been released yet, but that isn’t stopping some people from parting with serious cash. A Chinese man recently spent $16,000 on a virtual sword for the game. Sound crazy? A study released earlier in the year valued the oft-controversial virtual economy for MMORPGs at $3 billion. It’s the dawn of a new era in online hustling, kids. Forget selling apps for ¢99. Start cranking out crazy spells, healing potions, and mega XP items for the real Bitcoin and Linden Dollars to start rolling in. (Via)
