Anytime anyone tries to tell you the economy is improving, no matter what obscure or irrelevant stat they try to cite, there's a simple, one word rebuttal that will decimate their point(s): JOBS

I've only had one SN on any forum I've ever been on and believe what I say. stock_trd3r? Don't insult me.

The U.K. is headed for an Icelandic type bust. I'd bet Soros is betting against the sterling now.

+1 I really hope the Republicans find their former selves, as of about 40 years ago, and lean heavily towards the Paul-libertarian conservatism, rather than the empty head Palin-populism.

This is one of the few times I agree with GB. I try hard to resist populist anger, but sometimes populist anger exists for good reason. The way GS profited from the backstop of AIG's record bailout (counterparty CDS swaps, paid for by the taxpayer) is one of the biggest financial crimes in...

Obama and the party in control are digging a deeper hole than had they let the free market reign. The lesson and moral in all of this is that whoever owns the politicians always wins, no matter what the politicians say - and the same assholes own all the politicians in the US of A. It's...

The answer is: a) To spread facts; b) To state truth; c) To counter the assholes who have things to gain by soft-peddling how bad things really are. d) All of the above. If you picked (d), congratulations!

Add me to your ignore list, madam.

Good comments all. I agree with everything said. I'd rather be on a forum where I disagree with everything said, but there is at least a constructive discussion, rather than one where the Landis's and stock_turder3s of the world hang around quipping substanceless one liners all day. Cheers.

The only times I see or hear about the Casinos being busy is on holidays, which there aren't that many of. Most AC casinos are BK, and many LV casinos are operating in or near BK.

I want everyone to allow me the privilege of rubbing Landis's nose in puppy shit the day and/or week the markets crash hard, ala 5% in a day and 10%+ the week, when the polyannish clannish finally can't positively spin terrible fundamentals to the sheeple anymore - give me that one request...

This guy, and I hate to say this, because it relies on my judgment of human character, rather than any empirical proof (though I'm sure the paper trail and proof is there for those who have access) - - but I'll say it nonetheless - - this guy is a motherf**king liar and a real piece of...

- “China is in a real desperate situation,” said Verleger, who publishes the Petroleum Economics Monthly. “We’re in a situation where U.S. consumers aren’t consuming and Chinese manufacturers get hurt. Economists are looking for growth in all the wrong places.” Bold call. I...

Bold call. I can definitely see the "glut" he does, building, too, but $20 is a long way down. http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601109&sid=aQBXqFcd5gJo Verleger Sees $20 Oil This Year on ‘Devastating’ Glut (Update1) By Grant Smith July 16 (Bloomberg) -- Crude oil will...

I always thought it was the person signing the mortgage note whose responsibility it was to keep themselves in their homes. I must be quaint. Still, this affirms that things are getting worse, and not stabilizing, as Kudlow & Kneale (the brilliant economist that Dennis Kneale is) would...

The U.S. stimulus package was never designed to work for "precisely one quarter" (I'm paraphrasing your ridiculous insinuation). You are quite disingenuous in your contentions and debating tactics. The general point is that once a stimulus package trickles out, whether here, or in China...

For Landis, resident whining bitch of ET, with a gift bag of pamprin, kotex and vagisil. Feel better, cupcake! * JULY 16, 2009, 12:00 A.M. ET US Foreclosures Continue Shattering Records: RealtyTrac By Dawn Wotapka Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--National...

First, thanks for interjecting a point (from another thread) into this one. Second, the point was not irrelevant, as it had to do with your general contention that China's economy is doing well on a secular growth basis, and I am rebutting your contention by opining that Chinese GDP grew...
