Good sense of humor. Oil below 60 spells trouble for oil sands but then somebody in Arabia might be on life support or there is loud blast somewhere and oil price moves again to the least expected level.

Are you talking to me!? Then add the fact that some idiots started drilling in the US and morons from Canada want o build pipeline. This is big no no. How we can manipulate price of oil then? Oil price has to go down so it will be uneconomical to drill in the US and Canada until this will be...

Presidential Election is driving oil price now and it clearly indicates that oil price has nothing to do with supply/demand but local and global politics. It is used as proxy for tax without increasing taxes and for money transfer abroad without raising money laundering flags. So it is safe to...

IB Canada will be under different regulator and account insurance body so it would be somewhat separate from IB US or even UK. IB Canada is set as a separate entity because of that. Then you have tax issues. I do not know how you can have multiple country accounts with IB but if you are...

IB is OK; they are just not customer oriented because they assume you are more professional trader and do not need much help and hand holding. If you need more help then broker with higher fees is for you and it still does not guarantee better service.

Bankruptcy is declared when there is debt (financial liability) that cannot be paid back. As of now your LLC is solvent so it cannot declare bankruptcy. LLC will protect your personal assets unless it was set up for fraudulent purposes or it was willfully undercapitalized. Unless you write naked...

Technically the proposal is for all FT reason being to close all means to escape FTT. However, there will be 1700 pages long tax law on FTT and we will have to check for loopholes and exemptions. Since the tax is sponsored by big money center banks (contrary to popular opinion and media fog)...

French socialists introduced retroactive tax and 0.3% growth will be achieved with help from government sponsored statistician. Obama team is studying this now because it looks very interesting.

Microsoft free antivirus. All other software has some issues working with Windows (surprise!). Since I have installed Microsoft product all memory leaks, hung ups, slow downs went away. How good is the antivirus part? Hope it is not bad as Bing!

And also read book of Mao so you understand that currency and elements of free economy are just temporary and necessary evil until communists get to more power preferably globally. Then you will not need any currency. It will be Cambodia of Khmer Rouge.

So we will have global currency controlled by central committee of communist party who despise currencies, free markets and "capital" is forbidden word.

France introduced their version of FTT and that seems to be template for others in EU: Preempt Germany with own version of FTT that is much less strict. Germany needs Euro too because the idea behind it was the ability to run larger deficits within framework of the union than any single...

What Monti says is very simple: If Germany (EU) will pay Italy's current and future debt then FTT is no longer an issue and they are all in.

People talk about little details that do not matter instead of focusing on big picture. The main question for FTT is what are you taxing and who will be taxed. The principle of free flow of capital is a very basic economic concept.

Disagree with "sucks". Data plan can be basic because data flow is just encrypted text so 5G seems to be extreme.

Forget the math. The foundation of capitalism is free flow of capital. FFT turns capital into budget. This is called socialism or in more extreme form communism. If you need information on socialism or communism economic achievements check the recent history of Russia.

No math or logic applies here because discussion is ideologically driven by the proponents of the tax. But it is still about the money.

Another book to start is more basic Murach (series -editor) Java SE or more detailed Schildt Java the complete reference. Look it up on Amazon. I think that there are many free learning tutorials too since Java is open source now hosted by Oracle. With programming is like with car driving -...

Lets keep Germany and EU continental markets importance in perspective: They account for few percentage points of global equity trading. They ask for global tax to tax the 90 % of trading that occurs through London, US, Asia and the rest. Brilliant.

When Wall Street financiers write letter to British PM to agree on that tax and they are the ones telling US Congress how to vote then I do not see this tax not being introduced here.
