    I voted for Obama.

    You don't need to back down from your earlier assertion that the 'baby boomers' (you implied this) were responsible due to their belief in entitlements. You are correct: we are the worst generation as far as I can tell. We had everything given to us. There were no bake sales and what-not...

    I voted for Obama.

    The Japanesse have a very high standard of living and the 2nd or 3rd longest life expectancy on earth. Don't try to use them for your doom & gloom descriptions. I'm 55 yrs. old and I've been hearing the same ole 'woe is us' for most of my life. If it wasn't, 'oh dear, the Russians and...

    I voted for Obama.

    That's what THEY'RE saying about YOU !! We do have 'term limits': it's called 'Election Day'.

    I voted for Obama.

    Ohhh Pleeeze !!! "Path of destruction" indeed. Russians, Japanesse and Americans are living better, longer and more opulently than ever before in the history of mankind. I think I've told you this before: stop your bellyaching and get some perspective on life.

    I voted for Obama.

    When I say 'healthcare bullshit' I am referring to the completely out-of-proportion bellyaching going on about a bill that introduces very small incremental changes: I'm not referring to the fact that he undertook the effort. I wholeheartedly agree with addressing the healthcare issues both as...

    I voted for Obama.

    Damn, dude, give the guy some time !! He's only been in office 10 months. What did you expect? It takes a long time to turn around a ship as big as America and things aren't that bad to begin with. Get this health care bullshit over, exit Iraq and Afganistan and then he will start...

    A peek inside the Health Care Bill

    You keep stating that this BILL is 'unconstitutional'. I think you had better read up on the meaning of what is and is not 'constitutional'. The health care bill does not change the Constitution is any way shape or form. It is a law, not a Constitutional admendment. As far as the other...

    A peek inside the Health Care Bill

    If you are trying to make the argument that health care should not be nationalized because the people currently NOT getting health care will put a strain on the system and inconvenience people who currently DO have health insurance then your argument is falling on deaf ears. Are you saying...

    A peek inside the Health Care Bill

    Cool. When we finish nationalizing the health care system you can reject care and turn to alternative medicine/prayer. Good luck with that.

    A peek inside the Health Care Bill

    I can pretty much guarantee that you have at least one member of your family getting medical care from a government plan. It might be your mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, mother-in-law, father-in-law, grandmother-in-law, grandfather-in-law, sister, brother, daughter or son. In the...

    A peek inside the Health Care Bill

    Glad you wrote back. I assume that you are young and full of angst as everybody is at that point in life. The essence of this post is an attack on the 'health care reform (?) bill'. As usual, the original intent of the post has drifted off into areas unimagined of which I'm as guilty as the...

    Which is the greatest threat to America?

    I am not counting what one group of people do to another group of people within the same country: civil wars. These things happened here and everywhere else at some time in history. (Although the fact that we are the world's largest arms EXPORTER does put a good part of the bloodshed on US)...

    A peek inside the Health Care Bill

    First of all, the 'shit is not going to hit the fan' in any major way: it is all in YOUR imagination. You are exposed to too much bullshit "bad news" and you are letting it dominate your thoughts. Jesus ain't coming to rapture you, aliens from other planets aren't going to visit us, the gov't...

    A peek inside the Health Care Bill

    What, EXACTLY, is so bad !?!? If you think these times are 'bad' you would have been a basket case during the Civil War, the Depression, WW2, Vietnam and several other periods in our history. You're biggest complaint probably involves your cell phone losing connection in a tunnel or the...

    Which is the greatest threat to America?

    In view of the fact that our miltiary buget exceeds 700 billion per year and accounts for 53% of the WORLD's total military spending, we better not feel threatened by Foreign threats. In addition to these outrageous figures is the fact that 7 out of 10 of the next biggest spenders are our...

    Which is the greatest threat to America?

    The biggest threat to America, and the world, is the continued unchecked growth of human population. Everything else is a gnat on an elephants back. EVERY environmental problem facing humans including water, air and soil pollution, ozone depletion, greenhouse gases, depletion of resources...

    A peek inside the Health Care Bill

    You are not going to hear a liberal Dem tell you why this is a 'good thing'. Liberal Dems do NOT think this is good: it is all we could get due to Republicans & conservative Dems caring more about protecting insurance companies than they are in providing Americans with health care. Liberal...

    Six Steps to Better Trading

    Thanks for the story. Very interesting that the guy sent his wife so he could focus on something else. In 2001 my wife and I spent 10 months attempting to daytrade the S&P emini and Euro futures. No luck and I had to go onto paying work: she had no interest in continuing trading. Now I'm...

    The Governments Great Track Record of Providing Healthcare

    You are totally correct UNTIL you get to the part of 'paid for by higher taxes on the rich and corporations'. ALL of us are going to have to pay higher taxes for these benefits. Corporations will save money by not being responsible for health care benefits to employees and those savings will...

    Six Steps to Better Trading

    Stopped out with a 3 pt. loss. The Trader Trick entry was actually invalidated by the Red bar following the Signal bar. I had the Buy Limit order sitting there and still felt the trade was possible UNTIL the Green POTENTIAL signal bar bottom was taken out.
