My complaint emanates from the fact that our esteemed government has passed legislation that benefits deadbeats, and passes the costs of this legislation onto the responsible. However, your point remains, and is a good one. If my credit card companies seek to impose fees or conditions on me...

More Irrational than the Dotcom Bubble Minimize Tuesday, May 19, 2009 The Honest Indicator Pointing to a Sharp Correction in the Stock Market In its epic battle against reality, “Green Shoot” mentality is getting back into the driver’s seat. Stock indexes pushed forward...

Wow, what a rally. I suggest you go all in with your entire net worth, Zhifaga.

Around here, the gas stations discount gas prices by 10 cents a gallon if you pay cash, and it's advertised on their signs.

Japan's economy in record plunge The world's second biggest economy, which depends heavily on exports, has been hit hard by the global downturn. The BBC's Roland Buerk in Tokyo says people around the world are buying fewer of the cars and electronic gadgets that Japan is renowned for...

Quit posting fact-based and data-rich negative articles. It's anti-American. Surf said so.

It's 'anti-American' to post this kind of fact-based information. None other than our own market guru - surf - said so. Get on the Kudlow chain-gang, commie.

Not to worry about tailspinning into a global downturn the likes of which we haven't seen since '42. surf said all is well.

Nothing, which is why surf has either been huffing, is drunk on too many appletinis, or had yet another brain fart.

Hey surf, aren't you the one telling everyone here how great things were in NYC a year ago, you never conceded any real estate bubble, and you've never really ever acknowledged any fundamental economic problems? I know, I know...things are great where you're at and everyone's flush with cash...

Exactly - Trader666 has it right. The merchant fees are where they made money off of me. If I charge 75k on my credit card per year, they make 3% from the merchants from that, which is $2250 a year right there. I'm serious - watch and see what happens when they try to institute annual fees...

Exactly. Screw responsibility. The United States is now rewarding epic failure and irresponsibility. You can only negotiate lower mortgage payments, by government mandate, mind you, if you're way behind. This credit card legislation protects those who carry massive balances, make...

Hamptons Homes Decline Most Since Realtors Kept Records in 1982 "Wah! Wah!" Sculptor Fredi Cohen expected the hand-carved sinks and tubs in her East Hampton, New York, home to stand out in the real estate market and help sell her three- bedroom house for $1.25 million. Almost two years later...

The responsible will now have to subsidize the irresponsible in yet another category of commerce. I plan on canceling any and every card I have if they attempt to impose any annual fee or change my terms in any other material way. I will use cash always, rather than subsidize deadbeats...
