    Russia Dumps the U.S. Dollar for Euro as Reserve Currency

    I wish you were never born as a human either :mad: I know it hurts you to hear a story that flies in the face of your anti-Americanism, but there is no need to call this man and his family losers. I would bet 10-1 that your net worth is less than $1,000...... and most likely it's...

    Forex Transaction Tax

    Here's an idea.......... How about these government's cut spending. Regardless if you tax financial transactions, cigarettes, cell phones, Big Mac's, or fucking uping the cost of dog permits, regardless you have wealth redistribution happening. Taking money out of private citizens' hands...

    Forex Transaction Tax

    So by my math, that would add about $5 round turn to each forex trade (standard lot)? .005% x $100,000 = $5 Do I have that right?

    The 'Dollar Is Going to Crash' Crowd Are Oblivious...

    I agree with much of what you're saying, except if that vision comes to fruition, Obama won't likely get a 2nd term.

    We Are Out Of Money....Obama

    In Obama's first year in office, he over spent (deficit) by more than Bush's first 7 years in office. So how is the deficit Bush's problem, when Obama has taken it up several notches? I'm not defending Bush's over spending, but you have to face the facts that Obama is spending more than Bush...

    As Smash-and-Grab Capitalism Collapses, the French Economy Shines

    Yes and they've averaged 9.5% unemployment during the 2000's.......... Their per capita income was 27% lower than the US in 2008 as well....

    I'm thinking about buying a house - should I do it?

    Spoken like someone that actually lives in a double wide..... If you plan on being in the house for a few years, I would buy now, or in the next year or so (I don't think there is any hurry for you). Also, I actually like putting the entire $110 down because you could have that thing paid...

    Ya, certainly if you look at destructive potential, you have it right. I guess I was looking more for just general "sleezyness"

    Credit-Card Law May Reduce U.S. Consumers' Purchasing Power by $90 Billion

    I think that in the long run reducing "risky borrower" credit is a good thing. It may be a little painful for the country in the short term however.

    The high cost of poverty: Why the poor pay more

    Since the thread has evolved.... At this point in time in the US, I still see that there is a level of racism that exists, but I also see that there is not enough racism to stand in the way of a person of ANY race from becoming a productive member of society. Granted, not everyone has the...

    The high cost of poverty: Why the poor pay more

    Where was race even mentioned mandlebrotset? I'm no fan of wellfare deadbeats regardless if they're white, black or anything in between. Are there historical/sociological reasons for poor people being poor? Sure. How do you solve these past injustices though? Certainly not by crying...

    Letter from a Dodge Dealer

    Depends on the franchise. I would rather own a couple of McDonalds franchises than a Chrysler franchise any day. Not all franchises are the same.

    The high cost of poverty: Why the poor pay more

    A quote from the aticle......... "Time is money, and both are in short supply" Bullshit. Most poor (not talking workin class, but poverty) have nothing to do all day but sleep, eat, watch TV and make more babies.

    Letter from a Dodge Dealer

    Not sure, I didn't ask him. It sounded as though Chrysler was only honoring the warranties (of the vehicles) for cars sold within the two week period. I would imagine they will do everything they can (probably already determined through contracts) to avoid dealers selling parts to other...

    Letter from a Dodge Dealer

    I agree that now they are very close, but the problem is that for 30 years it wasn't that way. And now as result, the perception is they still that they lag the imports. Perception is now killing the US autos. They made their bed 30 years ago and now they have to sleep in it...

    Letter from a Dodge Dealer

    Regardless of whether this letter if forged or not (you should provide proof since YOU made this allegation and others have provided links)............. This is happening. I had lunch with my buddy who owns a Chrysler dealership that was yanked. The article is almost identical to what I've...

    Letter from a Dodge Dealer

    Chrysler made it impossible for dealers to lower inventories and in fact the actaully had been "force feeding" the dealers in recent months by making them load up on vehicles (even though nothing was selling). The tactic they used, was to offer heavy incentives on their cars. In order to...
