    Question : Why did the Germans turn on the Jews ?

    Well, the jews were killing millions of christians and thousands of germans in the Soviet Union. I would have felt threatened too. Ever heard of the Wolgadeutsche? No? I supposed so. France I don't know, but the jews were expelled from Spain in the XV century for supporting the moors'...

    Question : Why did the Germans turn on the Jews ?

    Jews did not invent capitalism that's preposterous. In fact, most jews vote for the democratic party=socialists.

    Question : Why did the Germans turn on the Jews ?

    Cesko's the only good answer. The primary fear in 1920's-1930's Germany was the rise of the Soviet Union and its expansionist threat to Europe. Now, it's almost a Jewish tradition to advocate socialist-collectivist ideologies. In fact, in the US today, most jewish people vote Democrat. So...

    Could this be the beginning of the end of Fractional Reserve Lending??? A major .....

    Modern fractional reserve banking was basically invented by John Law, the 18th Century Bernie Madoff. He thought that financial pyramids (Ponzi games) did not necessarily had to go bust, rather, they could go on and on for a long time, if the promoters did not become too greedy. Well, Bernie...

    Could this be the beginning of the end of Fractional Reserve Lending??? A major .....

    You'd have to wait for a total collapse of central governments everywhere. Only when they are totally broke and powerless they will stop messing with the economy, money and banking. I don't think it's an impossible scenario.

    Could this be the beginning of the end of Fractional Reserve Lending??? A major .....

    The Bank of the South is a development bank, sort of a south american World Bank. SA is not becoming a common currency area, too much petty infighting, and Keynesianism-Socialism-Statism is too ingrained in almost everyone's minds, nevermind the "capitalist" rethoric of the right. About the...

    Bac

    The Treasury and the Fed's complete disregard for the shareholders is sinking BAC. No one cares about BAC's fundamentals anymore when the regulator can nationalize it at any time and "mading off" with investors money. This stock is likely going to zero, its nationalization is becoming a...

    DOUCHE BAG --- the origins

    http://www.shamelessmag.com/issues/2008/spring/last-word/ The last word Douchebag A few weeks ago, I was crossing the road when a silver SUV came speeding around the corner, the driver too busy chatting on his cellphone to check for pedestrians. As I jumped back onto the curb, a shout...

    DOUCHE BAG --- the origins

    http://www.drbilllong.com/SpellersDiary/Interlude.html Douche-bag (1963). I wonder if you guessed that douche-bag was introduced earlier than "dirt-bag." Even the Oxford English Dictionary (OED) has something about douche-bag. The word douche, with this spelling, goes back to the 18th...

    A Socioeconomic soultion to the world's problem.

    In third world countries, the bleeding hearts have established many subsidy "humanitarian" programs, among them, a program for young single mothers. Guess what? Now teenagers are getting pregnant for a measly $30 subsidy. So as disgusting as the OP proposal is, they are already doing it...

    Is it just me or the internet has become slower ?

    This is an issue only if you have internet on an oversubscribed shared network like Cable-TV. Not an issue if server and client are on good networks and the intermediate servers are good quality also.

    Is it just me or the internet has become slower ?

    You could also do that on IE, you could turn Flash off by turning off ActiveX plugins, and it's faster but not as fast, and simple as OffByOne. OffByOne still faster than FireFox with Flash off.

    Is it just me or the internet has become slower ?

    Just found a blazing fast browser "Off by One" http://www.OffByOne.com This is now my main browser during trading hours, when speed is of the essence and I don't have time for wasteful flash ads or processor hungry scripts. This is the internet speed I remember from a few years ago...
