Fact check: "Nearly 20 percent of Americans live in rural areas. They tend to be social and fiscal conservatives. President George W. Bush won rural districts nationwide by 19 points in 2004 en route to re-election with 51 percent of the vote nationwide."...

Good ones Mike. How about: 1. Not using market volatility metrics in trade size calculations. 2. Not enough system diversification.

I've been compiling an ignore list over the past week or so. I've noticed that it seems to have a disproportionately large 'weeding' effect on these forums: Stocks Psychology Politics & Religion By and large, it leaves the serious forums alone. I never thought I'd like this feature as...

This is my last post on the subject. I do not seek, nor do I expect 'middle ground'. You've gotta be joking. Given the rancorous nature of your participation in this and other threads, I consider your accusation of 'personal attacks' to the quintessence of 'intellectual dishonesty'. Spare...

What the hell are you talking about? Proposition 8, which gays opposed, was a proposed addition to the California state Constitution, a.k.a. bigger government role. C'mon man, you're making yourself look silly here. Let logic be your guide.

You seem to be having a little trouble with logic. I'm not a gay activist. This was my first statement on the topic: "The important issue here is not gay marriage, but rather, 'what role should government play in our lives?'. This issue transcends 'limited interest' issues such as gay...

Are you telling me that your argument is delicately hinged on the interpretation of ONE WORD? Allow me to rephrase the question. 'Once again, you've failed to answer the question. Try again. On what grounds is gay marriage an issue that should be governed by a popular vote? Perhaps you could...

Once again, you've failed to answer the question. Try again. On what grounds is gay marriage an issue that should be governed by a popular vote? Perhaps you could give specific examples of where gay unions are a detriment to the welfare of the general public.

I don't recall these issues being on the ballot.
