Those of you who support the abolition of the AMA choke hold, count me among you. The AMA purposely limits the number of doctors so as to keep existing doctors' incomes above market. More competition.

remove state mandates which drive up the cost of insurance and limit choice. OPEN EVEN MORE LOOPHOLES FOR INSURANCE COMPANIES TO DENY PAYMENT The loopholes are written into the regulation. I hate to burst your bubble, but it's your friendly regulators and state legislators who write these...

You forgot Social Security and Medicaid (which is running at $66 Billion instead of the projected $9 billion - which makes the claim that government run health service will cost less a sad sad joke)

1.) remove state mandates which drive up the cost of insurance and limit choice. 2.) Remove the prohibition on buying insurance from other states. This prohibition also creates the "pre-existing condition" issue because moving to a neighbouring state constitutes a break in coverage because...

congratulations (without a hint of snark, I say this). if you wish to share how you managed to accomplish this, I would be delighted.

OK. Let's try that again. I think you don't understand how this works. First you complain and try to stop the implosion of a perfectly good country. THEN you move if that fails. Complaining AFTER they've screwed everything up irrevocably is pointless.

He usually does. Very subtly. He also shifts around in his seat, his eyes and mind wanders. It's clear he doesn't think Ron Paul is worth his time. Although, any time a congressman talks about taxing the rich, increasing regulation or giving the Fed more power, Bernanke nearly orgasms. It...

Too late. Most of the barbarians are sitting on the congressional committee.

Hey, they want more government intervention and prevention of anyone shorting? They're going to get fewer customer traders and less liquidity. The only people still able to trade freely are the uber heavily regulated market makers - liquidity providers - which include banks. There's a...

What's missing from the tape is a shot of Bernanke rolling his eyes. Ron Paul is the only one in congress how understands anything other than how to collect bribes and bully the serfs.

No, what I said is completely true. What I said is if you take non-accredited investors, you're a lawsuit waiting to happen. Any lawyer will advise you to avoid them like the plague unless they're close family. The lawyer will also tell you to avoid lawyers in your fund!

One more thing.... You're going to want to make sure you only take money from "qualified investors" - people with at least $1MM net worth or incomes exceeding $200K annually. If you don't take only qualified investors and you don't have a clearly spelled out trading partnership, you are...

If you take other people's money to trade commodities, you have to comply with the rules of the CFTC. You may or may not need a license, but when you take other people's money, you must establish an entity - a trading partnership. You will need a PPM, an operating agreement and...

i thoroughly enjoyed it as well. I was wondering what you were doing up so very late. "i will not go into it in detail but lower rates for savers does not necessarily mean lower rates for borrowers." I do realize all that and it's a very difficult discussion to have on such a message...

But, we're inundated with "green shoots" all over the media. His may be the opposing view but, it's still a whisper in the "green shoots" screaming match. I happen to think there's worse to come and I don't want people complaining "why did nobody see this coming?" this time around. BTW, I'm...

That's a great argument - even if I don't necessarily agree with the first part. But who knows, I'm agreeing with it more and more.

I started my own business, moved it out of NYC and my health insurance is 2/3 LESS expensive than it was when I got it through my employer. But, we really do need to get away from employer provided insurance. It's arbitrary.

Fine, Kazz. But why does the government have to provision as well as fund it for the folks who are truly needy? Also, they will still be denied some care because, the reality is there are diminishing marginal returns at some point even in healthcare. The guy who wants a $1MM treatment...

Kazz, I agree with the poster you replied to. I (and I'm pretty sure the poster too) would be against Obama, Bush or anyone else who tried to usurp power. But, Obama is in office and he's the one doing it now. So, his is the name you'll see.
