    What's the difference in thinking between a republican and democrat?

    I have not met a liberal yet who voluntarily wants to pay more than 50% of his or her income in taxes. Bill Maher said it on his show. Every wealthy liberal that I am aware of uses every available loophole or accounting sleight of hand to lower their tax bill. Warren Buffet and Nancy Pelosi...

    What's the difference in thinking between a republican and democrat?

    Republicans truly want the same things as most Democrats in terms of an end state. The difference is in how to get there. Republicans and Libertarians don't think that the Federal Government is the answer to all the nation's ills and each individual's pressing personal problems. Republicans...

    And More Winning! Supreme Court deals blow to unions, rules against forced fees for government worke

    The Democratic Party has clearly abandoned the working middle class voter. They don't want them any more. By purpose and design. Hell, outside of the public sector and service industry unions the remaining private sector union membership went big time for Trump in 2016 - in fact, it very...

    Autonomous Vehicles Might Drive Cities to Ruin?

    For those of you keeping score at home: Trump at a reported 6’3” (190.5 cm) sees this shorty Saudi King trying to put a medal around Trump’s neck so he bows just enough so the King can put this piece of schwag around his monstrous combover and orange neck. It was in no way a salutation...

    Why trading is sometimes difficult for me

    Even when I prop traded and floor traded for tics - I never used a 5 minute chart. I used longer timeframes because I wanted the sense of perspective. Yeah, I could scalp off a 30 or 60 minute bar a long time ago. No wonder you're so anxious and living and breathing with every uptic or...

    G7 minus 1

    The real reason that Macron is pissed off at Trump: Cancelling the Iranian deal and reimposing sanctions. French oil company Total concluded a deal worth about $4.8 billion to develop the world’s largest gas field in South Pars Iran over the next 20 years. Airbus entered into a deal to sell...

    Study: Using Uber, Lyft will be cheaper than owning a car

    I had a condo in the City of Chicago for several years. For the first couple years, I owned a car - which made questionable financial sense as compared to calling a taxi or renting a car if need be.

    G7 minus 1

    If a political party wants to win working class votes in the United States - especially in the Rust Belt, they are going to have to be seen as being very aggressive towards trade deficits with countries that are seen in the eyes of that working class as taking away American jobs. And I know...
