Taxes regarding trades became much simpler when I switched to futures, then FX.

Even further when you walk! (And not as far if you don't happen to be working full time). I don't dispute that there is disparity between wage and cost of living today. I believe changes should be reasonable. My wife has an MBA, been at her position over ten years, but doesn't make that much...

Something that should be mentioned regarding min wage then and now. Back in the 70's, over half the min wage jobs I took were full time, with plenty of time and a half overtime avail...especially in the restaurants. I believe that has now changed. Often the overtime made the difference.

My rent was 75. My food came from my job primarily. I couldn't afford a car, so did without. I had a small black and white tv, and a small am/fm radio. Bottom line, I lived within my means. I had quit high school that year, but did go back the following. Being in high school with your...

I have no problem going to that level.

Because I was willing to do without many things I would have liked to have. The economy at the end of Carter wasn't that great. My first apt was 1 room and a bathroom. I walked several miles each way to work.

Let's talk about incentive. In my last few years prior to joining the Navy (early 80's), I quit a restaurant management job I had been transferred to in a small town. Within a few months my savings were spent. I didn't seek welfare or food stamps and I didn't want to re-locate to a bigger...

They made him, they must protect him (to save their own credibility, which they somehow believe they still have).

Doc to patient: "You own any guns?" Patient: "Why, you planning on breaking in?" Seriously. See what he says...but be ready to find a new doc. He may not enjoy your sense of humor.

It will be most interesting to see who votes against this, and if any do, what reasons they give.

You'd think so. They installed a single speed fan on a dual speed HP, but they failed to bypass the fan relay circuit. Instead, they wired to the high speed fan contact on the fan control board, but simply capped off the low speed fan contact. When the ambient temp was low, the fan would...

It's not just the media, unfortunately. The big money that back the establishment right (and left) want open borders for cheap labor. Thus, I can't believe anybody but a very few who say otherwise. They only say what needs to be said to get elected. All but a few are nothing but bought...

Little off topic for the thread, but do you also do repair, or strictly an install man? (Had an incident with a HP condenser fan replacement this summer. Originally used a Home Warranty company to save money rather than repairing it myself but the contractors sent couldn't fix a simple...

How do we know those who make such a pledge will keep it? My guess is they won't. When the inevitable happens, I sincerely hope the anger of the American people will be aimed straight at DC including both parties and the executive.

"The only thing worse than a politician is a child molester." Rip Torn as Sheriff Hank Pearson in "Extreme Prejudice".

Both the libs and the rinos are spending money to take him out. I find that very encouraging. He is a threat to the status quo.

He doesn't see any threats. http://www.elitetrader.com/et/index.php?threads/secrets-of-the-right-wing-brain-conservatives-see-a-different-hostile-world.285995/

I don't believe big money with interests in the agenda certain media promote will allow that to happen. Additionally, when media becomes the story, they are no longer worthy of journalism. Unbelievable that they takes sides, reveal addresses before facts are revealed, and almost call for mob...
