I was thinking the same thing. Why not give the jobs in education, infrastructure repair and maintenance, construction, healthcare, the military, and the arts (arts? wtf?) to people who actually need jobs? So big brother wants to help pay for the first 2 years of college...

Get a real job instead. Like a civil engineer or a doctor.

Things were different 100 years ago. I think it's time to close America's doors. At least until it get its shit straightened out.

You need to get that $3.4 trillion figure out of your head. It has no basis in reality. You're using a paper currency that isn't backed by anything tangible to measure something that is tangible. With a gold dollar, a car might cost $600 instead of $6,000, but the exact amount of the medium...

I try to bite my tongue when I read or hear ignorant statements like this, but I can't. With a gold standard, the gold in circulation would simply be stretched thinner. A statement such as yours is comparable to saying that you can't measure a microbe because an inch is too large...

The prices should drop 100%. It's just paper and paint.

I'm sure the professor is aware of the theory that the FED is privately owned. Unfortunately, with no way to prove it, how do you cite your sources? I'm afraid that if your girlfriend mentions that she believes the FED is private, she'll be kicked out of her class and called a kook.

The masses aren't always wrong when it comes to direction. They're wrong when it comes to timing.

How does a bucket shop lack liquidity?

The "people" don't even know what the Fed is or does.

My personal favorites: Loose (instead of lose) and rEdiculous.

Wow. So, China is crowded? A lot of people need to buy food there? I had no idea. Thanks for the tips.

Go into debt. Buy as much useless shit as you can on credit. When hyperinflation sets in, it will be easy to pay off.

Stocks will take a shit as will home prices. Why would a foreign country want to hold US debt at the current rate? They won't. Thus, interest rates will rise eventually.

Well, the trend is down. Sell rallies.

At least 6000. Probably more like 3500-4000.

Seriously. What did you major in? I'm dying to know.

But it creates jobs!

LOL, there are none. You better find yourself a roommate or four. Why do you have to be downtown? Rent is cheaper in the suburbs. Just take the train.
