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

    Exactly. That is what is concerning. Defazio is a political ant. The AFL-CIO, however can bully the Dems into supporting 98% of what they want.

    Global Tobin Tax Proposed

    “If increased capital requirements are insufficient, I am happy to consider taxes on financial transactions -- Tobin taxes,” Turner told Prospect. “Such taxes have long been the dream of development economists and those who care about climate change -- a nice sensible revenue source for...

    transaction tax mathematics and end of day trading

    The "fairest solution" would be for the government to stay the hell out of our lives/pockets and quit redistributing our wealth. He is an idea for the Federal government (Dems and Republicans alike)............ quit spending so much money. Promote a change in culture among the poor, rather...

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

    Yes there are those people, however there is a 0% chance that they could do something like confiscate 401k's. Republicans would sweep both houses of congress and the Dems would get crushed for 20 years. They had greatly overestimated their mandate at the time confiscation was being talked...

    At least 50% of success in life comes from luck?

    Luck plays a role, but on the whole, the vast majority of self-made, wealthy people that I know are extremely talented in some area. Whether it is the ability to sell, manage others, motivate, communicate, sniff out deals (real estate, business opportunities, etc), self-made people almost...

    how did people get it in their heads that long housing is an investment

    Your money is made on the purchase, IMO with real estate. Now is a good time to buy, IMO, with beaten down prices and low interest rates. Choose wisely though, as maintenance and taxes (as mentioned) can kill you. With that said, it's greatly overrated by many people.

    BuyLowSellHi - ET's fear monger

    This site is becoming quite sad actually. I don't mind BLSH posting an article every now and then, but many times I come here and the summary page (with the latest 20 posts) will be 25% BLSH's posts. I don't even have to click on them to know they're his. Then you have all the gold...

    Soseki's journal

    Soseki, What type of software are you using to analyze the pairs and their relationship with other pairs? Or are you just "eyeballing" it? Also, what time frame are you watching and how long in each trade?

    Religion vs wealth

    Yes, I get that even whites make less on average. You stated however, that the Southern states are net wellfare states, taking more money from the government, than they pay. I was pointing out that even if that's true, the fact that there is a much larger black population contributes...

    Religion vs wealth

    Fact: Southern states have a higher black population which means that the median incomes will be lower overall. Fact: Southern states have much lower cost of living which means that it takes much less income, to live a comparable life style. Fact: Those opposing government healthcare...
