Who are you talking to? Right/wrong, there is no such thing in politics, only opinion and interpretation. And speak to me. Or if your comment is directed at someone else, pay them the etiquette of addressing who it is your speaking to. This is all part of that adult dialogue thing Ricter...

Using econometric regression analysis we can test for employment in countries that already had healthcare subsidies and look at the change in employment. I think what you will find with statistical significance is that those countries saw the same steady rise in employment after the recovery...

You could say the same thing about trading. So do you trade? Due your due diligence, research your trades carefully and go for it, you're probably going to do alright. (probably 90% failure rate of course).

No, if they are out of business then they are not making 50k a year. Ricter is it really so hard for you to agree to simple concepts. You don't have the character to concede anything I just posted? Instead of attempting to have an intelligent dialogue you rather play childish games. How...

Thank God you don't trade for a living. If a owner has gone out of business they are not earning a salary! It's called survivorship bias. Google it! Ricter, let's try this approach. Do you agree that franchise owners are not being given these franchises for free? That there is a cost...

Nice. Ever use ru garch? http://unstarched.net/r-examples/rugarch/a-short-introduction-to-the-rugarch-package/#

I see......

The trade hit your stop cowboy.

It's obvious the guy has never traded oil in his life. Nobody uses a .11 stop on a product that moves 2 to 3 full handles a day.

LOL. That was fast. Thanks for coming out...

Gold failed at the QTR A up.

Thanks for posting that. I'll take a look at those. Feel free to post some of your fav packages you've found. I'm always on the lookout for good stuff there.

Of course there are success stories. We have billionaire traders on ET don't ya know. I went to high school with two of the most prolific running backs in college and pro football. Who cares. I'm trying to get you to understand the economics, NOT the politics of it. You REFUSE to listen...

Read the article I posted Ricter including the suicide note. It should give you some pause.....I hope. I know all about the Mcdonalds franchise. One of my best friends from growing up has worked in one his entire life as both an employee and franchise owner. Now read the above article.

http://www.psmag.com/business-economics/disenfranchised-fast-food-workers-quiznos-73967 Here you go Ricter, from a liberal outlet no less. Just please read it with an open mind. Can you do that?

You know, the MLM model is exactly what it's like. Except instead of recruiting people you have to borrow more money and open more restaurants. The parent companies make a killing. Trust me man, I have some so many friends I grew up with that own places. What Ricter does not understand is...

You have to look at the size of the debt and the size of the economy. It's like looking at a mortgage and comparing someone who owes 50k on a small home vs someone who owes 500k on a large home. The debt might be ten times bigger but that 500k debt is worth more and will appreciate more over...

Ever heard of surivorship bias? It means the sample you are looking at are the ones that remained. You view the winners. The losers disappear out of sight. So yes, there are plenty of profitable restaurants around because the losers went under. Again, survivorship bias is EVERYWHERE...

The debt is sustainable. What are Coles Notes?

Ricter, I don't know how to explain this to you since you have never taken a damn risk in your life, but most businesses fail whether they are restaurants or not, that is a FACT. Restaurants have the unfortunate quality of being in a very low margin business with lots of competition. Ricter...
