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

    I would think its more catastophic now then in the old days, much more volume in the market place with razor thin margins in profit. They always say that most of the volume out there is speculative, which the market would dry up worse now then the old days.More people work in this industry then...

    It was not so much an approval just not a disapproval, I think he chickened out either way. You see how quick they let this go this time, and that bitch luckily enough didnt push the issue and have Cramer jump around like a monkey

    Cramer might be a big name in ENTERTAINMENT, but people who decision make do not take him serioulsy, he made his money on the wrong side of a very grey or illegal area of his hedge fund, he is not the one to preach either way

    Dont feel that bad, Cramer was a joke anyways, yes it sucks to have him or anyone come out on air ambivlent to the tax, but he still a joke! Keep writing mad money, and everyone u can now write and rewrite your reps and senators big time. The good thing we can hold onto is the names attached to...

    I saw that too powerballad, it might be just reported like that in the article instead of specifics. lets see when ever they file the real bill what it says. then we can also see how many co sponsors it has and follow the status .

    Thanks! I am not taking away any seriousness of whats happening with this but it just irks me when the reports are the same old thing wrapped up into a article on a new day. Notice that it is so far Defazio and Perlmutter, here are some articles from last week and a few weeks ago about the same...

    Nothing about this bill is going forward, this is older news we knew they were drafting this bill a few weeks ago. There are 2 or 3 others already drafted. This is just pulled from old news. The 2 bills drafted are Defazios from this year, and the trasnportation bill from this summer. A few...

    Thats why other countries get pissed becuase we do rule the IMF, we control the votes, we do not give up majority rule on that one. So they basically do what we want, which is a good thing. They will try to say they are independent but how can u be when one country controls what you do.

    Sorry you are right I did it backward , missed by a few! :) There needs to be 85% majority and we always have the majority! Last g20 we want to give emerging markets more of a say but we wanted other countries to give up their vostes like the European Bloc. Not us. Thanks for the correction!

    We also have to keep in mind regardless of what the report is the IMF comes up with , it has no rule of law. We actually control the IMF with our voting rights to veto things. I beleive we have about 86-87% of the votes and you need an 85% majority. We also have a stong track record of ignoring...
