    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    It might be the author of the article Wasik, a journalist with an agenda. Besides the ignorant comment about a trans tax paying for education, healthcare and deficit, Wasik thinks banks aren't loaning enough. Banks are just recently being forced to provide mortgages to those with no job...

    The rich are waging class warfare on the poor

    Take the initiative and steal back what they took from you. Figure how much you are owed and a little extra because you're special. Start with your local bank. That's where the money is. Plus you'll be famous.

    global warming is false.

    Liberal attack on Supplements..

    One drug alone, Vioxx, killed 56,000 and damaged the hearts of 140,000 just in the US. Merck and FDA covered it up for years until the slaughter became too much for even them to tolerate. But they will make up stories to get herbs banned that have been used safely for thousands of years...

    Moderators please ban Baron immediately.

    That pop up was irritating me too, but it was difficult to complain about only that. I have seen and or used hundreds of forums over the years and ET makes every one of them seem of ancient design like they are stuck in the early 90's. Has ET won any site design awards, if there is such a...

    "...Which begs question, why do futures traders get credited with the 60 percent long-term capital gains benefit? The other 40 percent of 60/40 is short-term capital gains rates, which are the higher-ordinary income tax rates. After all, why should futures traders and commodities exchanges enjoy...

    Getting out of jury duty for not being "of sound mind and good moral character" ?

    It won't work. Not that I've tried that. A former coworker tried just that....and got to be jury foreman on a murder trial that lasted a couple months. A way out of it would be to drive your car off a cliff, or rob a bank I suppose.

    Getting out of jury duty for not being "of sound mind and good moral character" ?
