:D This thread is a fail based on the title alone.

Realistically, this is quite rare, especially for public companies. The board hires the CEO and not vice versa.

:D Not actually a terrible idea.

My girlfriend.

I don't know where you live and what the tax code is like there, but in Canada we deduct a portion, if not all (I forget off the top of my head), of foreign dividend tax paid from the domestic tax payable which at least partially negates this.

I'm no oil expert, but this seems unrealistically low...

Indeed. Big firms hire good accountants who minimize their tax bills. Obviously these companies aren't going to pay more in tax than they legally have to. Hate the game not the player.

Absolutely this is a shareholder problem. They pay the CEO's, not the government.

:D Don't be so naive. Such a thing does not exist.

I've never been one to argue against trading with the trend. But be nimble, CBs can be powerful when they want to, even if it is short term.

Even a 10 yr old blind kid knows giving more money to the Middle East is a bad idea. Or perhaps the Dems WANT higher gas prices for the USA? More incentive to "go green" and be "environmentally aware," and all of that crap.

This would never happen in a million years... Think of the confidence crisis that would stem from Bernanke throwing up his hands and saying "That's it, I'm done! We are out of bullets!"

1. Lay off the coffee. Your post reeks of a hyper-active, A.D.D., public school child. 2. If markets will end up in the same place as today, shouldn't we buy and just collect dividends?

:D Pure genius if you ask me!

Bogus report. The Gaurdian and The Drudge Report are complete idiots. NASA tweeted this link this morning, explaining that this is NOT a NASA report... http://paleblueblog.org/post/9110304050/some-important-points-of-clarification "So here’s the thing. This isn’t a “NASA report.”...

Highly recommend it if you ever get the chance, especially for someone interested in military-type strategy etc. I played for the first time a few weeks ago and fell in love with it. Good workout, and fun as hell blastin' your friends with paintballs.

Does/has anyone here played outdoor paintball?
