    Notice its not just the mega rich who vote for Dems its a slight majority of 200k per year crowd. Secondly I don't think its guilt. What is stopping the rich from sending extra checks to the US Treasury? I think the mega rich want higher taxes because it will make it difficult for the...

    Bush Tax Cuts Extended By Dec. 15th Or Crash?

    well, you can't blame the Democrats. What's baffling to me is that majority of the rich vote for DEMOCRATS. For every earner making 250K+/year who votes for a Republican there is one earning same money that's voting for a Democrat...

    Gold

    If someone selling you stock is telling you that the stock can only go up in this economy, why shouldn't you be suspect? Normally, those who are selling stock are doing so to make money or to cut their losses. Or perhaps to cash in their assets. I don't know if anyone one who really...
