    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    First of all, you don't want efficient markets as innefficiency equals more opportunity. Second of all, why are you all so defensive when someone simply tries to explain to you the logic & agenda behind this tax? No wonder daytraders are so easily targeted, all you can do is bitch but...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    Ok and? Not that long ago, spreads were very wide, stocks traded in 1/8ths and commissions were huge. Markets functioned just fine, but daytrading was restricted to the insiders. [B] That's generally how Wall Street works. [B] If naked shorting had exemptions, this will too...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    You're just not getting it. It's about power & putting barriers to entry. It is about putting the little guy and the smaller financial players out of business. It's not about tax revenue, and as long as you keep referring to that, you simply do not understand what is going on. You're...

    Amazing Quote from the Wife of Wall Street Exec

    This is the harsh truth. Reality setting in. Most of the 100k+ jobs were running on cheap credit money and an overblown financial services industry. It cannot & could not last. Few faced this truth during the good times, but those that did are ready for the current changes.

    Amazing Quote from the Wife of Wall Street Exec

    Excuse me, but are you trying to imply that you are something special and are "in the know"? Should we bow down due to your greatness? Or are you just some jerk-off trying to play pretend on an internet forum? Personally, I think your parents need to cut down on your use of the family computer.

    Buffett says US in 'economic Pearl Harbor'

    Which run on oil. Ever look into who was supplying Hitler with oil? More than one company, but the largest chunk came from a well known American company whose remnants nowdays are Chevron and Exxon. Funny how as soon as that company was cut off from trading with the enemy, Hitler's army...

    the end of UK.. RIP.

    So what is your point? You are essentially admitting that Italy, Greece and similiar nations with weak, corrupted economies are leeches and benefactors at the expense of successful nations. Socialism at its finest. The relationship is not complex, it's simple. You want their products, you...

    Buffett says US in 'economic Pearl Harbor'

    Let's be honest, it's not smart, it's special privilege. You really think if they held an auction on these, noone else would bite? Seriously, these special arrangement investments would sell like hotcakes and fetch a better price. Wealthy investors would do it for 8-9%, if not 7% dividend...

    Spelling Secrets of a grade 1 dropout. Only $19.95. ONLY 216 left, HURRY!

    This is true. If you just want it as a hobby, because the ad click business appeals to you, it's fine. If you plan to earn real money, you're very late to the party. Really, in this economy, are enough people left to buy crappy rip-off products over the internet? Obvious answer is no.

    Buffett says US in 'economic Pearl Harbor'

    That is the bottom line, Buffett is a shill & always was. There is a reason he is in the spotlight for decades, he is performing a duty on behalf of the ultra elites.

    Call to Arms - We Must Fight the 0.25% Stock Transaction Tax

    Oh yeah, I'm sure the Congressmen will care sooo much. Just like they cared for the overwhelming opposition to the TARP bailout. It's very simple, your government does not give a sh*t about your stance on the matter, it does not represent the people and has not for decades. Wake up! Accept...

    the end of UK.. RIP.

    Uhm, you're wrong. The people of Germany, Denmark & Netherlands did not want the Euro. They wanted national sovereigntiy and did not want a group of bureaucrats controlled by the elites trumping their national laws. Nations like Italy & Greece wanted the Euro because their economies are a...

    Amazing Quote from the Wife of Wall Street Exec

    Boo hoo hoo! Step outside your bubble and take a look at the real world sometime. Things can be much much worse. There are some places on this planet that fully fit the definition of Hell on Earth. Most of these people live in an illussion, cause they can't handle reality. So what are...

    You know the cold weather sucks but the real reason I actually feel sorry for you is because you live in Pittsburgh. I've seen a more pleasing group of people walking past the church's soup kitchen than walking through Pittsburg.

    Peter Schiff says Fed/Bilderberg isn't evil

    Sounds like you do understand and simply asked a rhetorical question. That's the point of corrupting senators & Congress to pass the Fed Reserve Act, it's power over the nation while not being held accountable by the voters. [B] Congress can just revoke their charter, nothing is...
