We're not talking about pennies. Current democratic FTT legislation would put a tax of $40-70 per round-turn on each ES contract.

GS would benefit from the FTT. MM would be exempt, increasing B/A spreads and screwing retail traders, 401ks, etc out of more and more profits for the banks. The ones who will get screwed out of business are individual traders like me. Sounds like you don't understand the trading business or the...

I never said Obama would destroy the stock market. I said democrats would put individual traders like me out of business.

Democrats back the financial transaction tax which will put most traders out of business. I'm no fan of Romney, but I don't want the dems to destroy my trading business.

Sent one of my favorite ties to the cleaners. Never got it back. I think they took Mitt's tax returns, too. Those bastards!

It's not clear which law he broke. Could you be more specific?

There's not a single objective reporter left in America because objectivity isn't considered important anymore. More evidence that the Titanic has hit an iceberg.

When I was a student at Berkeley I took a drive across the bay to Stanford to hear Thomas Sowell speak. He was amazing. His logic was impecable and every point was carefully documented. He completely changed the way I thought about the world. I have a section of my home library dedicated to...

So, you're saying that what they did was legal and correct and you would have no problem with it if another group, say the TEA Party, did the same thing at polling locations?

It's a difficult choice to move our children out of schools where they are doing well, but I see us leaving the US sometime in the next few years no matter who wins the election. My wife is an Australian citizen which creates opportunities for relocation. The United States has run off a cliff...

As Election Day nears, Obama supporters step up riot threats http://twitchy.com/2012/11/02/as-election-day-nears-obama-supporters-step-up-riot-threats/ ==================================== Black Pastor Receives Death Threats For Reversing Support For Obama...

When we bought our home in 1992, my wife insisted that we finance with a 15-year mortgage. Smartest thing we ever did. Fifteen years flew by and we own our home -- free and clear. Anyone considering buying a home right now, get yourself a 15 year mortgage. Fifteen years from now you'll be...

I agree with you. Both MSNBC and Fox are so biased that I don't bother watching either of them.

You're arguing against an assertion that was never made. Nobody ever said that Fox News is unbiased. The Pew Research Study shows that Fox News is biased and MSNBC is MORE biased. You haven't presented a shred of evidence to prove them wrong.

Nobody ever said that Fox News wasn't biased. The claim was that Fox News is biased and that MSNBC is more biased. You haven't offered any data that refutes the conclusions of Pew Research. You keep asserting the same position that everybody agrees upon -- Fox News is biased. Yes, we all...

That's what the climate-change deniers say. I'll go with the science on this one -- Pew Research, named by the NYT as one of the most trusted research firms in the world. Pew Research provided a detailed report with all the data and you're telling me they're either incompetent or a bunch of...

Let's see, should I believe Freethinker/HuffingtonPost, or Pew Research? ... I think I'll go with Pew Research on this one.

Just as there's no doubt that MSNBC is a wing of the Democratic party, bashing Romney and the Republicans non-stop, only more-so according to Pew Research (whom the New York Times named as one of the most trusted research organizations in the world). Given a choice between the data-free opinion...

If Pew said that Fox was more biased than MSNBC, you'd be happy to accept the Pew data as correct. However, since Pew dares to disagree with the Huffingtonpost, therefore it must be wrong. (Please don't argue that Huffingtonpost is unbiased. Not even Arianna Huffington would believe that.)

MSNBC really is more partisan than Fox, according to Pew study "I thought show host Sean Hannity of Fox News defined party propagandist. But while his channel was bad, it wasn't as bad-boy biased as MSNBC."...
