    Is Wal-Mart the main reason why we're not seeing major inflation in this country?

    I saw a Frontline program a while ago. They pointed out that Walmart was the best at using a price leader to get you into the store - for example a $10 microwave. However, when you got there and saw that is wasn't as good as an easy bake oven, you would end up buying a more expensive microwave...

    TIMES method

    First, nothing works in all market conditions. That is a key characteristic of a good trader -- knowing when market conditions have changed and the system need to be adjusted or shelved. Second, these "trainer types" usually have all the "right" answers so they can't be pinned down...

    Outsourcing the death of the economy!

    I'll add my $.02. First, the only way to create wealth is to grow it, mine it, or make it. Everything else just passes dollars around. Second, we need to have an economic system that provides for everyone who is willing to participate. It is unrealistic to expect everybody to start their...
