    What will happen to those who got expensive student loans to get worthless degrees?

    Who in the hell gives a crap about them or the millions that are unemployed and underemployed? We are a nation that don't give a damn about the misfortune of the other guy as long as we have ours. And we laugh at the few bleeding hearts that do show some compassion. We call them Socialists.

    Myths of economic development?

    I am a Vietnam veteran and I can assure you the people of Vietnam during the war were not concerned about who ruled the government. Their only concern was about the safety of their family and having something to eat. Governments are always the oppresors and war mongers. People are the same...

    Series 7

    Series 7 is for sales people. It is mainly about rules/regs and not trading. If you are not going into sales there is no reason to take the exam unless the firm/exchange requires it.

    republican budget director. we need major tax increases not decreases

    What you think and what is reality can be totally different. There was no possible way, without a compromise, to continue the Bush tax rates. Everyone's taxes would have increased. Again, during a major recession there should not be a tax increase. When, and if, the economy improves would be the...

    Taxing the Rich does not kill Jobs

    Nonsease. I used to be poor and had to pay income taxes. Of course I was too young and did not have the ability at that time to do my own taxes or pay someone so I had the local IRS office prepare my return. What a joke!!! When I protested that I had made only the minimum wage, at that time...

    Why do folks only get behind stocks after they have made big runs?

    One must realize that professionals have two accounts. Their trading account and their investment account.

    Why do folks only get behind stocks after they have made big runs?

    The majority of investors buy high and sell low. The professionals knows this as they sell high and buy low. The pros will 'load up' at bottom prices and unload at the top plus sell short for the coming drop in prices. The question should be: Why do people only in the stock market wants to...
