There is no government "tit." It's your "tit" and mine. And no, the "government" should not have a say in these matters. If you want to get the Christian point of view go to Liberty University. You want the Jewish point of view, then go to Yeshiva. In both democracies and dictatorships there...

I won't pretend that I know what "heteroskedasticity " is. I will try to look it up.

This mat be wrong. This may be where Peter has a point to make. Collective human behavior may be more predictable than realized. Perhaps there are large market forces that take advantage of this? Soros has said that when markets are irrational they are more likely to become even more...

It would seem there can hardly be a more appropriate item to sell to a sucker than a $15 10-pack of straws!

What is your evidence the "system is broken". From my vantage point is seems to be working exceptionally well so far.

in post #18 above I wrote something that is incorrect when I wrote, "Where is all that excess money going if not into private savings and treasury purchases which again swells reserves that the Fed may have to drain?" When the Fed purchases Treasuries reserve accounts are increased [not...

you are a fool then.

Grow up!!! Get a life!!!

The Fed is trying to maintain a particular fed funds rate plus or minus a little. The Funds rate is the wholesale price of money that banks pay. Banks loan without any consideration of their reserve account position. This is normal. The loans become a bank asset. To meet their reserve...

We know trump got poor marks in comportment and it was noted that he did not "play well with others" from the time he was a small boy -- that's why he was shipped off to military school! However these transcripts of course were released on social media as a joke. The "A" in Russian is the clue...

Of course no one is seriously proposing to get all, or even most, firearms out of public hands. It's only a few very specific types of firearms that some are proposing be removed from the retail and private market, while a buyback program for these same guns is instituted. We can discuss the...

Would this man lie? Nah.

Ha ha ha. That might explain a lot. Our resident "researcher", elderado*, is apparently unaware of new developments. ________________________ *I wonder, is this intended to be El Dorado, concatenated sometimes as "Eldorado?", and the stuff of Spanish legend or Arkansas.

Well the law has to be effective in denying access. Merely making something illegal does not deny access in the way I am using " deny access." What I mean by deny access is you can't get it, because it virtually does not exist in the general society. Therefore you can't even steal it. That's...

That's research? shouldn't you also read the NY Times story, and then interview the witnesses if you want to call yourself a "researcher"?

Yup. That's the big problem. He's a liar. And a liar under oath. Waving your penis around and sexually assaulting women as a sloppy drunk teenager I can over look. It's harder to overlook the same behavior at Yale. And it is impossible to overlook lying about these matters before the Senate...

"... Accusations without recriminations." :rolleyes: Not only is Trump ignoring laws, he is ignoring English too!

There is a way around all of this. A way to make it extremely difficult to tamper with elections.

When I wrote that I was thinking specifically of the laws intended to punish those who commit violent crimes. To be clear, I should have written, " The effectiveness of laws and consequences intended to deter future crimes by punishing those who have committed a crime is supposition and guesswork."
