    Obama Justice Department OKs Black Panther Voter Intimidation

    The video reminds me of politics in Africa.. Do blacks ever work? Anywhere on the planet? I worked in the private sector for decades among many thousands of different persons and basically, if I knew ten blacks in that whole time I can't recall them.... employers see a black applying for a...

    why this board isn't healthy if you trade for a living

    All over the world, you can go to any university and learn philosophy 101. They teach you that good arguments come from good assumptions and good logic. You can then go down the hall to any other department and reasoning that will get you an F in Phil101 will get you an A.. in medicine and...

    Sim trading p&l 2009

    ($172) Still involved in the strategy development just a little bit, it's a distraction during the day. It's 99% complete. I still sort of can't do the job but I'm getting into it a little better each day.. I'm not unhappy with these results because looking back I see that to the plan I'd be...

    why this board isn't healthy if you trade for a living

    I did a lot of backtesting over a few years... eventually I did come up with things that were way more suitable for a computer to do than a human. I did discover mathematical realities that led to promising stuff. A couple of different realities led me to set that aside and start learning to...

    How Can This Be Overcome By US Workers?

    Yes. A lower standard of living does not really mean less happy. If a person has a roof, a garden, some friends [for me to be happy i'd also have to have internet and a library... with interlibrary loans... and some nootropics and supplements, the wife, the dogs, dog food come to think of it...

    Military on high alert- N. Korea renounces truce with S. Korea

    Commie jerks in N. Korea are out of stuff, time to take stuff from S. Korea or get bought off by BO admin... I'd nuke that short little bastard leader into the next world if I couldn't get up close and personal with my big knife. It's like some neighbor kid, the one that loves to kill dogs...

    Pay me $29.00/month and you can trade my account

    Probably it's heads they win tails you lose. If you are trading well they let you continue, if not they stop you and sell you some training... either way they get some money. I'm not saying I really have any real info about them, just guessing..

    How Can This Be Overcome By US Workers?

    Give 'em drugs or shoot 'em. They are like guys in the middle east that will never have a wife due to polygamy, they will become dangerous at some point.. I guess that in the past technology displaced workers but at the same time it created new industries for them to migrate to. Guess what...

    Once Considered Unthinkable, U.S. Sales Tax Gets Fresh Look

    The IRS would have a new job then. Frankly some items are marketable on the black market and some are way more difficult. Used stuff is largely sold for cash already, that would not change. Houses, cars, etc, not too likely to go under the radar...

    Sim trading p&l 2009

    ($700) The stuff I added to the mix last weekend has been killing me all week.. and it's a huge distraction too, I screwed up an order and was the wrong way and didn't know it. There I was, happily riding the trend and I look at the TWS and I was not only the wrong way but with two contracts...

    Obama abandons flood victims in Florida

    Would you care to expand on what you said? A lot of people here support Obama and might be more than just a little interested in hearing what you have to say :mad:

    Great Depression vs. Great Recession

    The problem of technology leading to unemployment was well known in FDR's day and the better part of a century before that. One solution was to mandate less work hours per week. The French did that recently and I'm informed that it's working out well. FDR vetoed it and instead went for a bill...

    Great Depression vs. Great Recession

    With jobless recoveries becoming the normal thing we are heading for a time when a day's pay gets you only a day's food. It could happen slowly or quicker but it almost has to happen... A day's pay would have to drop from, say $200 to $10.. if workers fall behind by 10% a year due to...

    Network Attached Storage

    I have a toaster for onsite backup. I opened some files directly from the toaster. That was Word over USB.. it seemed to be what destroyed the files, I can't think of anything else I did at the time. I rebuilt the computer and restored the files to the normal directory. When I opened them they...

    Once Considered Unthinkable, U.S. Sales Tax Gets Fresh Look

    It's doable, no shots fired even... get the VAT in place and stop paying the income tax... the tax base is so narrow nowadays, some very small percentage of people pay half of the tax.. get them to just passively revolt by stopping paying and stalling for as long as they can. This debt ridden...
