My power went out 2 or 3 times today in Northern CA. First time that has happened in a while. My electric isnt that high. $57 only. In the summer it runs no higher than $110 and I run the aircon 24/7. But maybe some of the less energy efficient houses run more, but they must be over 2500...

Revolution will not come to the US as long as we have food stamps and unemployment benefits.

LOL....The first sentence says it all.... Eng. Andrea A. Rossi and Professor Sergio Focardi of the University of Bologna...

I doubt it...billionaires tend to spend their lives DOING things,not wasting time on the internet. If you have a billion dollars, good chance you are not looking for tips on how to trade, or where elitetraders think the market is going. With a billion dollars YOU control where the market is...

Why couldnt the white guy run away? Surely its not hard to run away from a bunch of black thugs with their pants around their ankles.

I remember a few years ago in zimbabwe how they had 1,000,000,000% GDP growth in one year! For the life of me, I cant understand why they collapsed with all that "growth".

I already answered that. They likely were not going to sell them, but use them as colateral for loans and such. There are alot of complex financial transactions out there. For instance, they could be forming many corporations then listing assets as 1 billion using the t-bonds. Then having...

Wow...almost 3 hours. Cant wait to watch it, though.

A bunch of teens running wild.

I'm not 100% sure what you just tried to say, but I'm guessing something to the effect of "I didnt take into consideration the fact that we are richer and more powerful than mexicans" correct? If that so, then the answer is a question....How did we get so powerful? One of the main reasons...

We dont know that it would've been the same or worse though without the Iraq war. For every $15 per barrel in oil prices thats $100 billion dollars per year more that we are paying for oil. So paying $60 per barrel more for oil, costs Americans about $3.5 trillion extra over 7 years. Would...

I havent seen the cupcakes here in northern CA yet. I sure wouldnt buy one for 50 cents let alone $4 though. I found this interesting video of a brand new krispy kreme being opened up in winston-salem. They brought out a celebrity and a news crew, ribbon cutting and all the bells & whistles...

Yes...we have to stop Joe public from owning any type of guns. Guns are bad! We need a gun policy like Mexico. Citizens there are not allowed to own guns and they NEVER have any gun violence in Mexico, right? Right...?

Hmm...lets look at this according to the chart you linked... When Bush won the election in 2000 the price of oil was $31.16(adjusted for inflation to 2009 $38.44 according to GOVERNMENT inflation numbers) When Bush officially left office in January of 2009, oil was $33.07, so adjusted...

I believe some of these people are using the bonds to secure financing on construction projects and things of that nature. I dont believe anyone is trying to get face value out of these things. Its alot easier to get someone to loan you a few hundred million dollars and do a no money down...

Krispy Kreme! When you have a healthy economy, it looks like this... Japan: <iframe title="YouTube video player" class="youtube-player" type="text/html" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/XU4MaPkMz9M" frameborder="0" allowFullScreen></iframe> or this...

Only $20 billion? Thats nothing compared to these guys caught with 134 billion in fake bonds. http://www.thebigmoney.com/articles/explainer/2009/10/21/bond-fake-bond?page=full Or this guy caught with $302 billion in fake bonds. http://www.wsbtv.com/news/24764950/detail.html Or the...

What, you dont like 1 ply extra thin almost see through toilet paper that tears off the roll 1 sheet at a time after you pull it? :D

Most Americans buy Toilet paper by the roll anyway. If there is more toilet paper on a brand with 8 rolls than another brand with 12 rolls, most will buy the 12 rolls. I'm pretty anal about buying Toilet paper(pun intended) I always check the price per sq. ft to get the best deal. You...
