    Marketsurfer's bold gold proclamation

    Surf, Really great to see you posting again. I just closed out my GG short for a net of about + 1500. I thought I would say that first to show that I don't really care what way gold goes but rather I just call em' as I see em'. While I do not feel that gold in itself is a good...

    is the US a third world country?

    It would appear you have forgotten about the federal debt along with perhaps your own states issues. Its a damm shame that people like condorll (and myself) can live within their means and are too productive to live in the "hand me a check Im not rich" America My school district will give...

    Why not give Wal Mart a bank charter?

    it appears that the fed was too busy tripping over themselves to help out some of their friends at GS and MS. Fed Allows Goldman, Morgan Stanley to Become Banks http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=avXkDayu9Geg&refer=home Besides, With the way walmart gives the customer...

    Hyper Inflation Risks?

    Cool poll but I would suggest that "<25% Legal Tender Baby!" is wrong. I would say that less than a 1% is "safe" without any real worries. Even a 10% chance is scary as hell IMHO. who would have thought a year ago when the stock market was at an all time high that even a 20% pull back...

    They just banned short selling in US

    Actually the sell off in Oct 87 was faster and a higher % by a long shot. How about 29? Well we actually really went down a lot more. We are currently at the highs of 05 or about 20% off the all time high. Not really much of a crash when you put it in history terms. Information flow...

    Guys relax, US takes in 2.7 trillion a year in taxes

    Great idea. places that have bans against guns don't have crime. As an added bonus if you ban guns then only two groups will have them. the Govt and criminals (not sure there is a difference) Lucky mr good citizen has nothing to protect his family when a riot comes to town.
