    Everyone forgot about that missing 2.3 Trillion dollars

    How do you stop deflation?

    If you raise interest rates to stop inflation, then you must lower them to stop deflation. What happens when your interest rate is zero? Do you then give loans and only have to pay back 90% of it? Would that stop deflation?

    So anyone following Jim Rogers' advice and buying C?

    you gotta wonder though if he has changed his mind since then. He said to buy at 5 a long time ago. His new buy target might be 50 cents now. I actually owned C at 30ish. Sold it when it dropped to 28. That could've been a painful ride down.

    z10 how did you miss ths one?

    What? how do you figure it's a push poll when its done AFTER people have voted? I mean if you were going to do a push poll, wouldnt you do it BEFORE voting? Nate Silver didnt "debunk" anything and its pretty obvious he is a leftist.

    Science Vs. God

    So if thats true, then the next question is "where is your mind located, since this is all a hallucination and your body is not real." The fact that you do not know the answer to that question, means your mind is lost. So you basically have lost your mind by thinking that! So why should we...

    Seriously? Whats the big deal if the big 3 go BK?

    But its NOT going down. Creditors will take over assets or sell them at pennies on the dollar. Someone will buy those assets if they are sold and they are in business making cars without any debt. GM could be sold into several different new car manufacturers. The industry is not going away...

    Hyperinflation vs electronic payments?

    Hyperinflation has to do with confidence & supply. I dont see how it has anything to do with electronic payments vs cash and all that. Its sort of like...lets say i start hoarding gold at 750 per ounce because I am scared the dollar will start falling...Gold goes to 1,000. Do i sell? not...

    Seriously? Whats the big deal if the big 3 go BK?

    I mean, look at how many times airlines go BK, but they are still there. Look at how many casinos go BK, but they are still there in business. Not really a big deal if the big 3 go BK except to maybe the employees. Yeah it sucks if your retirement income disappears, but hey... we are now...

    Structural Change....Like It Or Not

    Yes...that HAS to change. The question is...will it before the US economy collapses or everyone leaves. I dont think we can do it voluntarily. I think this model will have to be forced on us. I think the bloated cost of education will send alot of americans to other countries to study...

    End of cheap oil. Going to 150 by feb/march.

    Good point! They were over supplying by 300k barrels per day in october, so looks like they are still cheating. haha. But if they ever did what they said, It might look bad for us.

    End of cheap oil. Going to 150 by feb/march.

    USA today said this summer that americans drove 30 billion fewer miles. I did the math and assumming the average vehicle gets 25 MPG (2004 est was something like 24.6 so i rounded up) thats 61.5 million barrels of oil saved over 1 year (basically we drove a little less than 1% of what we...

    Google going under will it need a bailout?

    Makes sense doesnt it? A company makes makes more and more money every year, its net assets increase year over year, and is constantly on top of its market. Yeah that warrents a 60% drop from its high this year. Maybe there will be news soon that GOOG made an unexpected 10 billion dollar...

    The meeting on capitol hill with the big 3 is the most pitiful thing i have ever seen

    Well...you know the old saying: "give a mouse a cracker...and he's gonna want a glass of milk too" They're "milking" the big 3 for all they're worth now as they know the "crackers" are not going to keep coming anymore. Might as well stuff your face and say "no concessions!" while you still can.
