Well, to put it into perspective, Canadians pay double ( compared to Americans ) for plane tickets because of the outrageous fees and taxes imposed by their own governments and the quasi monopoly enjoyed by their airlines. Airport fees in Canada are a complete outrage. Taxes and fees , and...

Hmm, I used to do some of this but in c#, never used python. I remember that their stocks on the move used an Ajax call so all I had to do was to use that call rather than load the main site. Of course, you need to figure out the proper parameters, cookies etc. Also, the main site loads...

Well the whole point of being a trader is not having to kiss anyone's ass. Especially Steve Wynn's. I doubt there are that many traders in the 39% tax bracket on this site. And even so, I wouldn't call 39% (marginal rate, at that) the 'bulk' of their wealth.

Holly crap. I actually agree with you on this. Well, most of it.

Yeah, I'm sure there are abuses but unfortunately the caricatures we draw on both sides do not help in either fixing them or even getting to the real issue of 10% unemployment and 25% for the young. (That's the next generation that has had a lot the jobs it could learn on exported to slave...

Touching concern for the poor. There is still time for the Republicans to pass the middle class tax cuts.

LOL. The EliteTrader bully that spends so much of his time posting useless crap that he's up to 4400+ posts thinks Obama is the dumb one. And really, considering who the Republican leaders are and/or have been, I wouldn't be playing the 'intelligence' angle too much if I were you.

By freeloaders do you mean the wall-street parasites that pay less taxes than the guy working 3 jobs? (And still bitch about it)

You guys seem to be really worried about the billionaires but don't give a s*it about the middle class getting all their jobs exported to slave labor countries.

Cool, I think you're one of the dumbest people on this board so good ridance. LOL. Ah, by the way, he didn't actually 'move to Macao'. I'm pretty sure he still has a couple of 'small businesses' in the US and a couple of personal properties too. Probably earning a pretty good living off them...

Steve Wynn has a small business? LOL. I'm sure that there is a provision in the legal code regarding the handling of traitors that sell out their country to earn a buck. But you know, I wonder what the Chinese would do to one of theirs if he threatened to leave China and establish himself in...

Yes but the OP needs to be aware of the reasons why his developer wants to use VB. If they are 'I don't know any other language' then he needs to be careful because it may indicate a certain lack of experience.

Gawd, anyone using VB in 2010 sucks. I mean, do you want to trust your project to someone that doesn't have the brain power to use c# or java?
