And exactly where do you think your income taxes go? Have you ever wondered why the GBP is the strongest currency (if you can call that kind of scam a "currency")? The British empire is alive and well, but contrary to the Americans, they have adapted to changing conditions. They know it's...

I agree. The problem is, of course, that our "democracy" is now only skin deep. It doesn't matter whether Kerry or Bush will be the next straw man. The reason we're backing the wrong horse is that our masters ARE that "wrong horse".

I agree with what you say, and even with this statement. However, it is not necessary for an investment to pay out a return. The reason why we have been chasing returns for decades now is that cash as we know it is a wasting asset. This has not always been the case. If you had buried a...

Any stock margin account should be able to short QQQ.

Just give it a few more years and the Euro will be the currency of a whole nother cesspool of natios used to cruel leaders, re-indoctrinated by the communists to not believe in anything except hatred and lazyness, while suffering great hardship under a kind of proletarian elite. The one thing...

My guess is hyperinflation. It's just easier to print money than just about anything else. By the way, I like your handle. Why do I get the feeling you might be hoarding those beautiful Mexican 50 pesos gold coins that say "INDEPENDENCIA Y LIBERTAD" around the rim?

It has nothing to do with tricks, charts, or eyes. Let me explain what I meant: "There will be a point in our lifetime when the price of gold will be three times higher than now." If a deflationary collapse of the economy is to be avoided, there has to be inflation of at least 5% per...

It's interesting to think about the new Osama tape. If we assume that Osama has already been captured and is being held by the Americans for presentation right before the pesidential election, then this tape could have been created by the American government in order to weaken the Euro. I...

Nice poll! What surprises me the most is that so many people don't seem to realize what would happen if we taxed corporations to death. Also, where do they think a corporation will get the money needed for its taxes? Could it be from the consumer? As with anything regarding money, I am...

If you count Jews as white, then I do, but it does not really matter what color, age, or sex our masters happen to be, does it? While I don't disagree with your post, my personal "big picture" is a little different. You are 100% correct that human nature is what makes the world such a bad...

Yes. I would have to agree with most of what you say. Except maybe that the dollar is in the hand of a very few people, and if those people decide to print more of it, then stock prices will rise astronomically. Stocks will still be worth less, but the dollar will be even weaker than stocks...

When I read the title of this thread I thought it would be about precious metals. This sort of "any pullback is a buying opportunity" hype usually comes from gold-and-guns fanatics. At least they are right in the long run: There will be a point in our lifetime when the price of gold will be...

That might explain your opinion. Of course everything will run smoothly even on the slowest Pentium if you use a decent operating system. But have you tried your setup on a Windows machine? I have been using Windows XP for a couple of years now because it came with my computer and I wanted to...

Is that how it is transcribed?

My problem was that I kept losing money, but it was never that extreme. It seems like from day 1, I always kept more or less breaking even. In fact, most of the time I had a small profit before commissions, but the commissions amounted to anywhere between 100% and 200% of my gross profit, in...

I concur. THe interesting thing is that it is not only Labor Department numbers, but lots of different sources. This suggests to me that the responsible persons are indeed above the law. I mean, let's face it. There are a few hundred individuals on this planet who can have anything they...

Would those be the Labor Department employees who don't know a blackberry from a hole in the wall or the one in a hundred who does?

I agree. This time it was so obvious. I mean those people obviously have no idea about trading, otherwise they would have disguised it a little better. Also, they are either not the brightest (otherwise they would have hired someone who could have entered the trades for them in a more subtle...

"give themselves" is quite a euphemism for it. It's not like they actually pay for it. By the way, did you know that congressmen and senators get 100% of their salaries until they die as part of their retirement package. And guess who pays the monthly premiums for this great retirement plan...

Does anyone here understand why we are having this "bull market" in equities? If I were the government, I would know a very easy way to make stock prices jump up by, say, 2000% overnight: Just print more money. If we suddenly have 10 times more dollars than yesterday, it has to go somewhere...
