These countries are in the worst condition right now (I'm talking out of just the developed countries. Of course there are developing countries that are in far worse shape): UK, Spain, Ireland, Italy, and Greece. We need to keep a close eye on these countries. They may be the first...

Pretty sad that Brits and Yanks are arguing here. The two countries are so similar in culture, and need each other in these times. Someone actually sees France as more of an ally than Britain? Hilarious.

The answer is simple for a Brit like you. Move to Canada. Similar culture. Tons of jobs because of oil and other resources.

Some may think this is a silly question, but it's not. I wondered the same thing myself. I'm not talking just about Britney Spears, but about America's obsession with celebrity, the celebrity news industry, the entertainment industry, and the huge imipact it has on America. I agree that no...

This is scary stuff. He could be right. He's not the only one predicting total disaster. I thought we had a better than even chance that Dow 7500 was the bottom, yet it seems like we're gonna test and breach that.

Good point. It's so ironic. What's troubling is that we're simply not getting a fair assessment of Obama because of the media's constant fawning. Another troubling thing is that there are large segments of the media which are actually afraid to criticize Obama out of fear of being called...

That benediction by Lowery is not a good way to start the presidency. Here's the entire passage, and it's not only offensive to whites: “We ask you to help us work for that day when black will not be asked to give back, when brown can stick around, when yellow will be mellow, when the...

Very poor examples. I hoped you guys would be smart enough to know that the "adoration" those leaders have received would be the equivalent of a person using a puppet to praise himself since media in those countries were utterly dominated by the state. It's not real acclaim at all...

Tell me of another politician who has received the amount of hype and adoration Obama has.

Gotta love the market. It's pure reality. It's not buying any of this Obama adoration and hype.

Barclays is down a staggering 42% today.

Looks like we're gonna test and break Dow 7500. S&P 400 is absolutely realistic. S&P at 500 would be a little more realistic.

In spite of all the talk of "change" and a "new era", the reality is that Obama will be governing from the center.

Let it be known that President elect Obama has received more worldwide hype than any other leader in all of human history. I would defy anyone to name someone who has received more. In modern times, Presidents Reagan and Clinton have received alot of acclaim, but they did so only after...

I just find it amazing that the world is actually waiting with breathless anticipation to inauguration day. Like I said, this has got to be some kind of mass delusion driven by the fact that he is black. The media is simply falling over themselves in their efforts to lionize this guy - a man...

Very interesting question. I deliberately did not vote because I believe trading has elements of both. These days, I've come to believe that trading has alot of gambling in it. Alot of people will absolutely assail this idea and say that trading is not gambling, but they're just fooling...

Some people have no concept of right and wrong.

The candidate promoting "change" is very frequently successful at getting elected. I've noticed it many times in the past. I'm not exaggerating when I say this, but people actually think Obama is gonna singlehandedly save America. It will be very interesting to see what happens.

That may be what is happening right now.

Bush's 90% approval was obviously temporary and undeserving, and brought on by an extraordinary circumstance. Sure there was some mass delusion, but there was also a feeling of people wanting to rally around the president against a common foe. I am not a person that will be defending...
