Trump walks away on his debt every so often, Banks get bailed out for making bad decisions and then they hand out bonuses. What is happening is they are taking away the morality of bankruptcy and the regular Joe the plumbers see this and figure if its good enough for the rich, its good enough...

How much to people pay in taxes over their lifetimes in those countries compared to the US?

These people wanted to have big totems to show the world how successful they were so they spent every nickel they had and borrowed on assets and then borrowed again just so they can be the big dog in town. They probably impressed folks and everyone said "wow what a success" Now the tide is...

Dont bother with bucketshops. All you need is money and just open up an account with one of the regular places such as etrade etc.. and use the pro version of the software. If commissions is an issue it means you are doing it wrong. If a 10 dollar commission makes the difference between...

I would like to note back then you had your debentures and scamsters playing games right before the crash. And using the Media to pump up stocks or cause them to drop in price. Now you have your players using CDS's and the media etc.. to play with the markets. Things always repeat in...

Seven steps to gain control of General Motor. "Leverage was the hottest new term in wall street" and it mentions the whole Leasco/Chemical bank mess. This is the Pinnacle of the Go Go years. http://books.google.com/books?id=DeECAAAAMBAJ&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q=&f=false

Check out this archival copy of New Yorker Magazine. "Ten Survivors of Wall Street Crash" "Three years ago this man was making 90,000 today he is making sandwiches" http://books.google.com/books?id=6OgCAAAAMBAJ&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q=&f=true Pictures of former traders making...

The 700 billion the banks were given was used to speculate in commodities etc.. pay bonuses and get sent to tax shelters. It did not increase velocity of money and it just stagnated. Joe the plumber is what will get us out of the recession not bailing out Dick Fuld,Paulson,etc. Think of...

It seems no one seems to disagree. Heh.

It seems that 3 billion for Cash for clunkers is working. Unlike the 700 billion dollar TARP that had no effect except to bail out Paulson. I wonder how the economy would have been if the 700 billion was handed to Joe The Plumber instead. Velocity of money is critical, 700 billion...

Looks like he seems to know what he is doing. The bull call is correct it seems.

Total BS how am I supposed to make money if they take this away?

Easy money. You should already start hearing more bad news from the media to start the next round. Usually GE follows a predictable pattern. Crawl towards mid 14's Then the Bloggers,shorts,etc.. start posting news like GE is worth 2.5, GE is enron etc.. Then stock starts the run back...

We spend billions a year giving financial aid to foreign companies and no one seems to complain. At least the 3 billion ends up in Joe the plumbers hand which means velocity of money. Unlike the 800 billion in tarp which just engorged the banks but it is all locked away in safes to be...

Commodities has no borders. We put up restrictions they will go to china. So we push jobs to china due to excessive regulations and taxes + Unions. Trading will just get sent overseas as well. We are becoming a third rate nation at this rate.

Not a problem here. I only trade high volume highly liquid stock. ie: GE for example.

You know that not too long ago people just bought stock and stuck the certificates in a safe deposit box. It will not be the end of the world, Traders made money when the todays daily volume represented a week of trades. Shit even earlier they actually posted on the newspapers the actual...

TARP just went into the coffers of GS and other big banks and did not increase velocity of money nor the economy. I bet that same 800billion dollar if distributed to the population in these types of incentives would have probably stimulated the economy instead. This is why I think TARP in...
