If you're good at trading futures just stick with them. They are simple beasts, they just go up or down with the underlying. No theta, vega, or gamma, although there is a tie to interest rates and any other costs of carry.

Moral of the story: There are no $14 billion sure things.

Liberals don't think in a church or out of it.

Which politician is against this trend? Ron Paul. Which politicians are not against this trend? All the others.

8 years of insanity -- and 4 more years of insanity. If you're not mad by now you're brain dead.

Which should I believe -- the Enron accounting of the CBO or the simple statements of our outstanding debt put out by the U.S. Department of the Treasury? If we had balanced budgets then why did we have to keep borrowing more money every year? If I had debt of $100,000 last year and debt of...

The only candidate who will actually try to cut the deficit is Ron Paul. Romney will just give us the same old shit. Of course mindless Republicans will cheer if Romney is elected, just as mindless Democrats will cheer if Obama is, but either way we'll have a government that deficit spends...

Ron Paul is a far better human being than you. When he has indigent patients he negotiates lower prices or treats them for free. It is because the average leftist is too cheap or uncaring to do anything like that that they believe poor sick people would die in the streets without socialized...

Note that you are basing your whole argument on inflation calculated using the 1980 method. By that measure nearly everybody in the private sector has seen his real income slashed over the past few decades. So if the rest of us have to suffer from substantial declines in real income why...

The mass media absolutely does not want Ron Paul to win. Faux News and other neocon media hate him because he doesn't like war. The rest of the media hate him because he wants to strictly uphold the Constitution, meaning cutting about 60% of what the federal government is doing. The big dirty...

If offending someone by sending him email becomes illegal, then I will be able to prosecute every politician who sends me email. Bring it on.
