More interesting, wonder how many skilled or professional, US born workers are looking for a new country.

In the legislation as of two months ago, ex-pats were excluded, haven't kept up since. More problematic will be the test or definition for those outside the US, most of the the year, without a permanent visa. Is that 6 months+a day, 9 months, 330 days (similar to the earned foreign income...

No, AK-47 bullets through the head is too messy. Hanging until the birds finish seems less gory, and likely a better deterent.

I dropped medical insurance ca 7 years ago as a waste of time and money. Never looked back. If I get a dread diagnosis, I am staying home. Never the overnight the hospital. I do read intensively and have an Ivy+ technical education. I've moved to Asia. For $350 per month, I hire...

1. Learn to live on less 2. The minimum wage is a problem, don't destroy the currency to lower it, just reduce or repeal it. 3. We are drowning in paper work 4. Dump medical insurance if you can, the return for all but the extraordinarily unfortunate is very low. Learn to take care of your...

Obama's college certificates for everyone, printed on soft durable Charmin', in rolls of 500 for economy and convenience.

Yep, gold is probably in a bubble. Reminds me of the NASDAQ at 1100 in the 1990s. It will go up and down (pls, I don't have as much as I need) , and I won't surprised to see it zoom to 5000 before it is all over. Ultimately I have faith in Bernanke to create a panic away from the fake...

Ben's econometric model must have a GCM climate model on the backend.

Cramer? Must be a near term high. Might wait for a 15-20+% pull back before investing for the last train out of Pesoville.

Think Alt A will be worst in markets that are already really bad e.g. California, AZ, NV, MI. Not expecting so much negative effect in places like Texas that will have population and economic growth.

Wish we had 0.25% that amount of justice here, would be an impovement. e.g. execution for $14 billion conned. We would clip a number of wings of super cons.

Bloomberg Futures at 425 am EST 11/27 is showing -666 on Hang Seng for the day??? Do we have a crazed biblical programer with an attitude problem over at JPM/GS ?

No to both OPEC and the frauds of ecofascism.

That math group part doesn't bother me. What does bother me is the inside track of GS insiders to policy information day by day and the *massive redo+transfer button* for transfers of taxpayer cash and newly created cash/credit as a simple fraction of the whole economy.

Oh. I thought "strong" meant a smell, like over ripe cheese or dead bodies.
