    Has abortion created the ageing demographic

    I wonder if those of you for abortion because you are worried about population growth would suddenly be against it if they made a law that YOU would be killed to make room for the new babies coming into the world. Hell, its alot more fair when you look at the big picture. At least you had...

    facebook fad splits stock for the 3rd time in 4 years!!!

    Yeah I've played that farmville. I got addicted to it for I think 3 or 4 weeks before I decided to stop playing.

    Buy silver bars now, people will try to avoid "health care bill" bullion requirements

    Pre-1982 pennies are worth 2.41 cents if you melt them down for the copper. But now even the zinc in post-1982 pennies are starting to rise. A post-1982 penny is worth a little more than half a cent. 100 of those pennies are worth 58 cents in melt value...soon the zinc will cost more than...

    What is the revenue maximizing tax rate?

    It was only over 90% AFTER the first $400,000 which was an insane amount of money in those days. (a house in beverly hills cost about $50k back then, so $400k was HUGE) If you made $425,000, you only get taxed 90% on that last $25k, not the whole $425k. So in that cast you would only have...

    How Do These Guys Make Money?

    Commissions. The last prop firm I was at was charging me about $3,000 per month in commissions and they had hundreds of people there. (You do the math). You also pay your own SEC fees at a prop firm (currently $19.20 per million dollars sold) You can expect to pony up at least a few...

    Death by outing

    The Moral of the story is...Dont do something you would be embarrased about if anyone else saw you doing it. There was no serious crime committed. The guy left his webcam running in HIS room that he shared with his homosexual roommate. If any of you have ever seen the show cheaters, they...

    Obama Opposes Tax Cuts for "Rich"

    If we ever end up communists, you better either get out of the US or you and your kids will likely never see capitalism in your lifetimes. Remember that the USSR lasted about 70 years before communism collapsed there. Once we start walking on that path, it will be almost impossible to get off it.
