    Twitter worths $4.5 billion?

    This is hype and advertisement, not valuation analysis.

    Policy makers trying to come up with a way for states to declare BANKRUPTCY!

    And that holds at the state level as well. This debt isn't one-off, it is a revolving ponzi system with new debt continually paying off old debt. If a state bankruptcy caused a large enough break in that chain, they'll have to go for a bailout anyway. If that's the case, why bother pissing...

    Goldman to invest up to $1.5 billion in Facebook, let the pump begin

    Of course not. There will be plenty of innovation from outside google. But this is an area that is not only very old and well-known, but concerns google's primary focus, targeted advertising.

    Goldman to invest up to $1.5 billion in Facebook, let the pump begin

    And myspace, which was supposed to rule the world by now. "Social networking" sites are fashion, all of them eventually get dumped when the new fad hits. If they were sustainable, Google would have done one 10 years ago.

    ObamaCare Insurance Mandate Declared Un-Constitutional

    Like Medicare/Medicaid. Which would be the sane approach and where this is heading eventually, once the healthcare execs get their last few feasts at the trough. The current system is horribly broken, and the obama proposal is absurd - government resources used to force the population to...

    Postal Service Reports $3.5 Billion Loss

    On the way to the endgame: elimination of paper currency. You think it feels like a police state now? Wait until the IRS, the police, and the banks know every penny you spend, where, on what, and how often.

    Americans renouncing citizenship in UK, 6 months backlog!

    What an unbelievable shame. The fucking degenerates in Washington have managed, in 40 years, to nearly destroy the glorious progress of the first 200. The whole world once sailed to US shores to work and succeed, and now it is a financial basketcase, a political laughingstock, a failed...

    I just want to trade profitabily

    Do you know what would be great? If some gold-plated guru showed up to help the poor struggling newbie, promising some secret knowledge that can really help your trading. Instantly, of course. Maybe you could correspond by PM or email. Or maybe they could offer their secrets through a...

    Old Dog new to E.T.

    BSAM, have some patience! Joyce needed 1000 pages, the least you can do is give fx 15 or 20 posts to warm up. Perfection isn't immediate. And this is some heavy rocket-scientist stuff -- the trading secrets, the codes and decimal points, the obscure and arcane knowledge, the real shit that...

    National Service for Americans ?

    This would seem to violate the 13th Amendment, although they may try to wrap the "service" in some kind of "terrorism" or "security" packaging to confuse it with a military draft.

    BAC/MER Has Ordered Traders Not To Enter Into Trades With BP

    Wonder who would leak this, and what would be their motivation.
  14. M

    Keep shorting BP down to zero. Here come the lawsuits.

    Nobody has to ask you - it has always been precedent. If you go target shooting in an crowded urban area, with no intent to hurt anyone, and wind up killing a passerby, is that a crime? If you think it would be fun to drop garbage on cars passing under a highway bridge, with no intent to kill...

    '99ers' exhaust benefits, Thousands are banding together to ask for more extensions!

    They have made it politically difficult to play the "fiscal discipline" angle. The US is - 7 years into it - still flushing $2 billion per week into Iraq, and another billion per week into Afghanistan, without any rational reason or identifiable benefit to US citizens. They rewrote contract...

    Why did AOL go public again??

    For the same reason all companies go public - to enrich the executives and skim some off for the bankers. Maybe they can try to siphon out of aol one last time as it circles the drain - how about a merger with blockbuster? What's really surprising is that they make any money at all, and that...

    Manhattan Apartment Sales Double as Buyers Target Bargains

    Pop-media marketing BS, a bunch of meaningless words to justify a disingenuous headline. Selective reference point cited without context - why compare sales to a year ago? Why not last month? Why not 3 years ago? If sales are "soaring" and "doubling," why are those idiots selling their condos...

    Shanghai real estate in HUGE HUGE HUGE bubble

    Surprise, builders hyping construction. This is like asking geithner and bernanke whether the banking system is healthy. If countries could stop bubbles from popping, we wouldn't see them pop. The reported appreciation amounts are clearly unsustainable (to the extent that any data from...

    Warning to anyone trading through an LLC

    Ideally. But the public has the ultimate put here - rioting. Once you reach a critical mass of people that get hurt badly enough and have nothing to lose, all bets are off. And that public is neither rational nor mature - they are for the most part short-sighted idiots that will happily bury...

    Another useless web 2.0 website!!!!!

    And salivating at the idea of cross-linking your purchases to those of all your contacts and their contacts, and associating them with your ages, locations, occupations, etc. And the IRS may find this kind of thing useful, as well.
