Daytrading = BAD. Nighttrading = GOOD. Is that what the OP is trying to say?

1. What would be the fair % level for this consumption tax? 2. How would the gov tax corporations like walmart? (outsourced all their stuff to china, say eyeglasses made for 50 cents, sold to the US consumer for 50 dollars; they would get taxed for 50 cents ?? since they consumed the product...

:D LOL

Look at it from another angle, if you were in Haiti, Chile or wherever during and after the earthquake. Those 2 Thousand or so potatoes have a lot more value compared to Gold. Value is merely a perception, which changes with the time. Better not jinx myself; I want Silver to go UP. :)

The massage parlor girls gave me stock tips, the taxi driver that drove me to the massage parlor told me the sky is falling, and the cop that took pictures of me going into the massage parlor told me, there's nothing to look at everything is fine; Move Along!

No complaints from me :D

No point fighting the trend, better get into the club while there is still space. Good Pay, Good Benefits, Good Job Security. What's there not to like. When the economy improves than jump ship again back into the private sector. If the private sector doesn't improve, we should probably have...

Perhaps, we could double bubble. But I doubt it, the people that have money to buy real estate right now would be very hesitant. Because they don't want the IRS on their ass. If I had money, I would rather buy gold. Don't have to deal with taxes and potential problems.

Sounds like a giant pump and dump scheme is brewing. :p

The military would sell their weapons for money. Soviet Union, had a damn good military system, still had to default on their debt. Nobody invaded them or anything, the market just priced them out of necessities; thats all. At worst if the U.S does default, probably the scenario would be...

The new currency shall be backed by human organs. :D

Not very surprising, it's Northampton. One of the many armpits of MASS. Well, at least the yay over there is cheap.

This is retarded! She's a pet store owner, who pays taxes by selling pets. O genius government, how are you going to get your taxes if there is no one to tax? :confused:

:confused: Why??? The local call girl only cost about 2-300 bucks, and you don't have to hear her praising cdo, cds, cmbs, mbs, subprime, blah blah blah when you're banging her. :D

:D Too Late; Too Big To Fail is forever set in stone already. You can't just splash cold water onto the stone and expect the writing to melt away.

That's what makes it a fun place to stay at. Unless you're the person that got pushed and shoved. :D If Shanghai wants to become the next financial center, easy.... just open a building that is 2-3x bigger than the CME. And have Open Outcry.

HK beats Shanghai by a long shot, work hard play hard is the motto at HK. You guys up north just work hard. :p

Be more aggressive when declaring wars. After winning whatever war SS then owns all rights of the defeated nations people and land. SS can then sell those assets to the highest bidder to fund itself. When SS becomes profitable, stall war plans.

Branigan & hillwood, thanks for your advice :)

To quote Jim Rogers: First you take money from the competent people, then you give it to the incompetent people. Next you tell the competent people to compete with the incompetent people. It would be okay if people use those 4 things temporarily to make ends meet, but to treat it like...
