I've attacked the unjustified cost that is Obamacare with nothing, but facts. I'm still waiting for the progressive response. In summary: - 30 million people will still be uninsured under Obamacare according to the CBO - We spend more in public health care already than countries such as...

Both public and private health care spending as a percentage of GDP need to go lower. If Obamacare actually accomplished that he wouldn't need to institute a 3.8% capital gains tax on income over $250,000, which I'm almost 100% positive will not even generate the revenue to pay for the program.

I really don't understand why we can't cover everybody with the money that we already spend. Australia lives very similarly to us, they cover everybody, and as of 2008 spent 5.7% of their GDP on public health care while the United States spent 7.4%. They spent 2.8% on private health care, we...

Wasn't Obamacare supposed to provide universal coverage? The CBO recently estimated that 30 million people will be without health insurance. I wonder how much they're taking into account the amount of employers who will scale back their employees hours so that they won't have to pay health...

Apparently not enough people in Europe.

http://www.nationalnursesunited.org/ They call it a Robin Hood tax. It makes up most of their homepage. I'm not really sure what it has to do with nursing.

It seems very strange to me as to why National Nurses United is so big on a financial transaction tax. What does high frequency trading have anything to do with nursing? By the way, don't these traders pay the same income tax as everyone else?

If you can self-teach yourself probability/statistics and programming then I really don't think it's necessary to go to college. Maybe take some courses at a community college to get started. I could be wrong, but I don't think that most people are using advanced calculus. However, if you're...

Has anybody taken this course? It's taught by Paul Lange and from searching on this forum people have good things to say about him. I'm not sure if I want to shell out $1500 to take this course though. I'm very interested in learning how to day trade gaps. If anybody has any other course...

I'm watching videos on their website so I'm learning. From my understanding Matlab is fairly easy to pickup, but learning C++ is very hard.

Thanks. I have no programming experience, but I will look into it. I see that Esignal has historical data. Does anybody know how good that is? Perhaps I'll be able to use that.

LOL All the idiots on CNBC were bitching about HFT today. They even had Mark Cuban on to bitch. Times have changed. Accept it.

I'm scalping. I just try to make a few pennies on each trade.

I was wondering what type of settings people like to use for their technicals for 1 minute charts. I'm trying to scalp combining technicals with the T&S and Level 2. Right now I have up: Stochastic Oscillator: 14 %K Periods 3 %K Slowing 3 %D Periods -I'm using a simple moving average...

I purchased the student version of Matlab as well as the datafeed and financial toolbox. The financial toolbox looks good, but I'm not sure how useful the datafeed is. It gives me 3 options: Yahoo, IDC, and Bloomberg, of which only Yahoo works. I'm not sure if I have to pay to get the feeds from...

I passed with a 79. Study the Pass Perfect and CBOE Review. I didn't do the practice exams, but did the questions are the end of the sections in Pass Perfect. Some firms want you to take the 56 so the 7 isn't always an option.

How well does this study guide reflect what's on the test? http://www.prop-trading.com/finra-series-56-outline/ This looks like many of the facts that we need to know to pass the test. I like it, because it cuts out the filler in the CBOE and Pass Perfect which are hundreds of pages long. I...

Nothing like inflating your stock markets to pretend like your economy hasn't gone off a cliff.

I'm sure that everyone on here has been following this woman's career well before 4:00 yesterday and has studied credible research as to what makes a good/bad CEO of a company.

It looks like a lot of people here are jelly.
