    Obama to tell Canada: No more tar sands oil imports

    I strongly doubt that this is something that can happen in the immediate future. Also from a strategic point of view it would be a very stupid thing for the US to do. But there is no question that the oil extraction process from the tar sands has quite a devastating impact on the environment and...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    Dead wrong, my friend. Trading not only provides liquidity, it also makes it much harder and significantly more expensive for the big players to manipulate prices, which makes the markets that much more efficient.

    tickmagnet, sorry to tell you this but <B>you will never make this money back.</B> There is no making money back in the markets. You either learn to make money or you don't. Period.

    Kiss Your Job GoodBye

    Well, Lucrum. When you spew something as stupid as what you wrote about people voting for Obama not being traders when it has nothing to do with it at all, what kind of response do you think you will get? Sorry for the moron comment but when people generalize like this it gets me really angry...

    Kiss Your Job GoodBye

    You and Lucrum are complete ignorant morons. Who do you think will people vote for after 8 years of a total disaster dumbass president like Bush in a TWO party system? Don't you realize that it was under his and republican party watch that the financial system came to the brink of a complete...

    Where to hideout in the worse-case economic scenario

    I've read somewhere that you can buy land on the moon. Or you could start a new life under the sea! :D

    full time Trader looking for a friend trader

    Be warned! Stats show that relationships where the partners spend too much together have much higher chance of failure. Would you be cool about it, if she were a better trader than you? :)

    Hedge-Fund Man

    I guess the situation with the banks and executive bonuses got so outrageous that it's hard to say what is a comedy and what isn't. :)

    Hedge-Fund Man

    The author is an incredibly ignorant prick. Unbelievable that Bloomberg even publishes this crap. <I>"Embrace your manhood."</I> What an advice!! :D <I>"Think about this. Some fool comes along and gives you $15 billion, no strings attached. The fool doesn’t own you. You own him."</I>...

    Young Men & The will to work

    I don't think so. The problem today is that most men grow up raised by women with fathers absent. Your thinking clearly reflects that. Most teachers at school are also female. This makes you think that women are all powerfull and that men don't do anything anymore and are expandable. Look...

    Merill pays out 1 million to 700 pple as America goes to the dogs

    Only in this case, the capitalism unexplainably erred and the invisible hand of the free market handed the tax payers the bill. Those who did shit, sounded like they know everything and had family and friends in the right places got the most cream.

    Socialised health care in Canada poll

    It normally does not even take that long. The waiting lists are priority based so if there is a chance of something serious like cancer you should get a preference. If you don't trust your doctor and are still really worried that your appointment maybe too late you can call around and ask for...

    Socialised health care in Canada poll

    Yes, that maybe true but it comes with a hefty bill once they are discharged. Do you realize that many uninsured people will postpone going to the hospital until it maybe too late just because they wanted to avoid burdening themselves and their family with a huge debt they simply can't afford...

    Socialised health care in Canada poll

    I'm certainly not proud of that and it is an extreme example. But everyone in Canada will get their MRI done when they need it. You sound happy with the system in the US but your idea about how the health care there system is efficient and well priced sounds naive. I certainly wish that you do...

    I feel your frustration but I find it kind of moronic to ask this question after such a post. That's like telling everyone that they are idiots and then ask them for directions. Good luck! :)

    Socialised health care in Canada poll

    I agree that changes are needed I'm just saying that it needs to be done very carefully. I would just hate to see the system to slowly turn into something like what they have in the US overtime. That would be a mistake of collosal proportions. Believe me I am just as pissed off as you by seeing...

    Socialised health care in Canada poll

    It's sad to see how misinformed a lot of the Americans are about the Canadian health care system. Must the billions of dollars spent on propaganda by the private health care companies milking the system scared shitless that the masses finaly say they've had enough and cut the flow of money...

    Socialised health care in Canada poll

    I'm not a puppet to anyone. I simply don't believe in the free market theory applies everywhere. The US system is clear proof of that. Please, explain a bit more about your reasons (407 vs 401). I'm always willing to change my opinion but so far I didn't hear anything that would warrant that...

    Socialised health care in Canada poll

    Well said. That's exactly the problem and also the major difference between the US and the Canadian system. People in Canada simply don't have to worry about it and that's a major weight lifted of one's shoulders when one hits a rough patch in life.
