I hate when normally thinking minds get all into how God wrote the bible, Adam and Eve as reality and all that. So hard to try to discuss things in the real world. Don't get me wrong, I respect everyone's right to believe what they like, Christians, Jews, Muslims, all pretty much the same...

Well, no. I just think, as with any business venture, you have to increase revenues or cut spending when you're running an annual deficit. Since our way of raising revenue is tax people, we either need higher taxes or more people paying taxes. Now, I guess I just provided the conundrum we're...

As it likely is with most people who could really do the Country a good turn, provide valuable service. If you mean non-partisan and honest with your website, please let me know when you get it up. I only question you because I know how deep your ideology seems to run. And, I respect you...

OK, maybe you can help me out here, RCG. As a 'friendly' - 1. Are you currently trading real money? Is it Forex, stocks, options? 2. Are you in or planning on getting involved in the patack video game paper trade thing, which is fine, since it might put those who enter on the same...

Man, as I said in the other thread. Are you trading in that combine thing? Are you trading yet? I thought we chatted about you considering to trade, but are happy with your job again. If you care to enlighten me, I would appreciate it. But, I wouldn't put too much credence to paper trades...

You guys are hard to keep with. 1. Is pspr trading, if so what does he prefer to trade? 2. I assume Luke did not do well in the paper trade thing, too bad, but did it cost him $$. 3. Did RCG decide not to spend money on the paper trade if number 2 is correct. And in all...

OK, Max, I hear you. Sorry if I came across incorrectly.

You guys are yapping about a less than $1 account, a video game combine or whatever. What is all that about anyway. Sorry that Luke didn't make it, but from the little that I've read, it's just a paper trade video game. Am I wrong here?

Serious question to you pspr, and those on both sides. You've seen it before, but I'm asking anyway. Would you like to run for National office? Negatives are horrible, like selling your soul to fund raisers, being put under the magnifying glass, especially these days of 24/7 news and...

Just curious, is pspr trading these days? If so, what do you like trading, which instruments?

Ah, the whole Solyndra debacle is so minor compared to the Mil Ind nonsense with Haliburton, Black water, and the off the books spending that has gone on. Solyndra sucked, but the impact was small overall. And, to your question, didn't Bush give out $600 or something to everyone? I would...

The discussion has been how those cuts would create jobs, which did not work. And, we have enough loads of shit on both sides, I'm only trying to discuss facts. And Facts seem to be variables these days.

I never said they did, and I think we agree more than disagree on the salient points.

Much like the Bush tax cuts I guess.

Now, come on. Has anything changed in the last 14 years? War spending, population, economy, import exports. Hell, let's go back to 1880 spending when the population was miniscule compared to today. 20% or more of all jobs lost forever due to technology. As in trading, we need to compare apples...

Damnit Luke, I really thought you might make it. You seemed to be so focused on doing it. Oh well, it's just a game anyway, didn't cost you anything. Save any feelings for real trading and your actual job. Don't get concerned about a video game.

Exactly + 1. I have had several phone meetings with my accountants, we have altered some biz structures going forward. I have had to sort of give up some ownership, but the net to me is better in some cases. And, by doing my trading in 2 different entities, I should save some money. I'm still...

Since we're gong back to the Clinton years, then jumping to the Obama years, maybe we should add those middle 8 years and the fall out. I know you all hate hearing about blaming Bush, but if the shoe fits.

Very good point, we'd have to get out of some wars, and cut back foreign aid, and I'm all for that.

OK, good, and good for you. If you're making $200k or so, that's probably good, but if you can add some $$ through trading, even better. Good Luck.
