There was just a vote for a school tax increase to bridge the budget gap of over 20 million. It was voted down!! Maybe there is hope after all:D

Housing bubble was much better. At least in the housing bubble you got to live in a nice house. Now you just have a bunch of brain-dead debt slaves with nothing to show for it.

I keep hearing the argument not to buy because of all the extra costs. Costs like property taxes, interest and maintenance. The truth is when you rent you don't get out of these! The costs are simply passed to you by your landlord who is a business owner. A landlord will charge you all their...

Very interesting how many people think a home is liability. We are taught to believe that a paper share of a company ( many that pay no dividends) are assets, but an actual home that gives land and shelter is a liability.

Of the hundreds of potential data pieces, what do you find yourself focusing on the most? Profit Factor, Max Drawdown, Win%, Consecutive Winners, P&L, etc...?

If anybody supports this bill, please tell me how this will bring down the cost of medical care? The issue in not about insurance when it comes to cost, it is about the cost of the underlying medical procedures.

Classic!!

Agreed. That's a large reason why I have so much more money than my friends.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Obama pass the " Keeping America on it's feet" bill and extending those benefits until 2015

How about a down tick rule. You can only buy on a down tick. That might prevent speculative manias, and BS bull runs? :p
