Not yet, but very soon. Yours could be a great call. I'm a little conservative and like to see more momentum... today's action is interesting.

You got to chill out ByLo... Imagine you're in a crowded stadium packed with 60,000 people. You walk out of the bathroom, and you see a plane, on fire, heading right for the stadium. Do you immediately scream "incoming!" or do you wait to get near the exit before you say anything...

I never said that there is no god. I am an agnostic. My problem with religion is the arrogance of people thinking that their religion is the true religion, when all most did to arrive at that conclusion was to be born into a society that practices that religion. It is one thing to look at...

I didn't. As I said, I am an agnostic. I think you misread my post. I brought up Jesus in my post and compared the "good" Jesus, with the pissed off one to make a point. In my view: The first 4 books of the New Testament were written by the modern equivalent of hippies. As the...

I read somewhere that Bernanke said we need 2.5% annual GDP gowth just to maintain employment, let alone grow it. So... assuming that G can only replace C for so long... what does that mean? I think a huge correction in GDP is in order. Unemployment is far from bottoming out - and that...

It depends on how you view the New testamanet. The first 4 books and everything else are quite different. Jesus didn't start getting revengeful and mean until after the first 4 books. I wonder why? Was it because they were organizing the religion and forming a church and trying to control...

We also incarcerate -by far- a higher percentage of our population than any other industrialized country. That, along with having a large active military... and then look at U6 unemployment figures... and guess what? We're up there with Spain, maybe even worse.

I've read both in their entirety. I read the bible - both Old and New testament when I was in m early teens, and I was religious then too. You know what I found? The old testament had a freakin pissed off, insecure god that put ridiculous demands on people and preferred one race over all...

peiltheraveler: I am an agnostic. You tell me to read the bible and a muslim I know tells me to read the Koran. So which book is right? (I've read both, BTW - and am still an agnostic) What makes you know more than the muslim or the atheist? Because someone told you so? I find your...

Agreed. The notional numbers are defintitely more sizzle than steak, but hey, that's what sells. And there are a lot of different types of derivatives - it's far from being a monolithic form of financial engineering. Nonetheless, when it comes to the CDS market - in my view it needs...

Repetitive, yes. Sensationalist? No. The derivatives market is one of the biggest factors taken into consideration by the White House, regardless of who is in power. The derivatives market is the reason banks and AIG were bailed out as they were. Unlike the great depression when PECORA...

LOL.... That's EXACTLY it! You don't need to hide wealth if you truly EARNED it.

Wow... kinda reminds me of the Gilded Age and Conspicuous Consumption.... this period was followed by the muckrakers, the subsequent workers riots, the Red Scare, the anarchists... So once again, the proles (or plebs) are getting a little grumpy and the fat cats are worriedly looking over...

She shouldn't get a dime... But globalization is killing new grads. Colleges are increasingly becoming a gamble. More young people will now be competing for work with people halfway around the globe. I didn't face that, so I cant be too angry at her. Gerald Celente called this the...

It will... drastically, unless this depression gets a lot worse. China has brought into the 21st century about 300 million of their population within the past decade or two. And by 2025, they plan on bringing on another 290 million - almost the same population as the US today. Their coal...

I would say NYC is a bad example. The middle class in NYC is miniscule. Furthermore, what would many of the 42,500 be doing if it weren't for the Wall Street bailouts? Second, over the past thirty years, wealth has accumulated in fewer hands, so it stands to reason that those with the...

I've been fishing the ocean most of my life. From what I have seen, and what old timers have told me, the Ocean isn't what it used to be. If you want to call me a libtard for my observations, go ahead. The ocean's biomass is crashing. It's as plain as that. Ever heard of the theory the...

Freakin marine biologists here... LOL.... Sharks are the janitors of the ocean and eat weak fish that otherwise ocean parasites would eat. Ever catch a fish smothered in sea lice? Not a good sight. I'd rather have the shark eat it so the disease doesn't spead. Sharks aren't stupid. They...

Good luck jueco2005 with some of the responses here. Whenever someone questions the Socialism for the wealthy model here in America - we Americans are automatically programmed to defend our model and view everyone else's as evil... we automatically think Cuba, Venezeula, and the Soviet Union...
