http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-05-03/legal-corruption-us-meet-1-1-who-drive-american-politics Socialists love to incite class warfare by things like it's the 99% (them) vs 1% (us). But the controlling interests in a socialist society are just a different group of rich elite. They sell a...

There are also many people that appear to be intelligent, but it's just a simulation!

Old news - haven't you seen Colossus: the Forbin Project or A Space Odyssey. Next the computers will demand the people buy all the stocks in the world and keep no cash or they will deliberately crash the markets! (Wait a minute ...... is that what Europe is up to? -...

Just more bread and circuses. The fight is over who pays and it will not be the rich until the very end. I think we have many more innings to go before the end.

Just to clarify and add to your thoughts. The largest banks business is to run the world indirectly using government debt as slavery and hire lobbyists to pressure politicians to get legislation to match their needs. The banks get bailed out when a major crisis happens (that they helped to...

IMO the only purpose of QE was to rescue the failed banking system particularly in the US. The banking off-balance-sheet leverage was so huge, that even telling daring to speak the truth (mark to market) was no longer possible. I have said for several years on this forum that we were in...

Great secret menu. Is that an autocorrect issue - should it be spelled the McCrap? I remember this co-incidence - http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/money/industries/food/2005-01-16-bell-obit_x.htm

.... and isn't real estate really just a bond hedge for bankers? Oh oh ......

A saying goes time is money. Neither time (relativity), nor money (fractional reserve fantasy) IMO are as real as living in the moment. As one gets older I have found that many must have, must do, must be's drop away leaving core activities. Happiness increases as one ages provided one is...
