On: Atlanta and Georgia lead U.S. in new business creation

I can't help but be tangentially reminded of this: http://www.paulgraham.com/submarine.html

Why?

2 days in a row, same author, 2 of the same article in the the atlanta journal constitution with the same spiel about Georgia having a high startup rate all with pretty much the same quotes from different state government related people...I'm sure there are more elsewhere if I look.

If i had to guess its a positive pr push from business associations based on a study that found in the states favor...

As for why the study is dumb see the thread thats the parent of this guy's comment: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=598317

I'm not knocking atlanta in anyway, just didnt see the need for the downvotes on anyone who tried to offer a counterpoint to the lovefest
