1. I left out the sentence about you not knowing whether there was healthcare or not because it's irrelevant to the argument. You said: <b>"When there is a World War going on, the last thing you're gonna care about is health care for the people."</b> It doesn't matter whether or not you...

Interesting scenario. I suppose if I were the Chinese, I would forcibly go after my own oil (resources) to counter. Could we see Cold War 2 with the Chinese sometime in the future?

I agree. Is there any way to have a "major war" today without the use of nukes?

Setting aside the fact that your reasoning for Stalin's murders are incorrect, I still disagree. Killing millions is killing millions, no matter the motive.

LOL what an ignorant statement. You might as well have said there is no need to feed the citizens during World War either. There were many countries who were able to provide adequate healthcare during the War...

You can pick almost any point in history and classify it as dangerous. It does not excuse Stalin's actions as a murderer.

So this justifies his killing of millions? Regardless of who was killed, or the way in which they were killed, the fact remains that Stalin and Hitler both killed millions of people, which makes them both sick and indefensible.

I can't believe you're defending Stalin based on these grounds... Hitler believed the Jews were his enemies and he was killing them for self preservation...does that make it OK as well? Killing millions of innocent people is killing millions of innocent people, no matter what your motive...

Very dangerous indeed, which he acknowledges. He advocates no stop loss at all, mental or otherwise. The basic idea is if your analysis says go short and the market moves against you, use that to average up as opposed to getting out of the trade and booking a loss. You must be flexible...

Smart people like you? In Canada, we call someone who doesn't pay back debt a bankrupt deadbeat. Then again, our banks actually expect to collect on their loans, so maybe you are correct in the end seeing as you're from England.

Canadian banks also are required to keep a larger percentage of deposit reserves which helps to reduce crazy leverage.

How did you come up with this $50 amount?

Isn't it natural to think that stocks are overvalued after a GIGANTIC rally? Of course the bargains in the stock market aren't there anymore, they have all made HUGE GAINS!

Yes but R&D/innovation is what fuels production. Without R&D/innvoation there will be no production improvements, it's a fact.

How so?

Have you taken any economics classes? Protectionism is the worst thing for an economy. Think the Great Depression... Free trade allows both countries to consume beyond their production capacity.

+1 Great points. To those who "can't see where any new jobs will be created", read this man's post. Of course you can't see where new jobs will be created! New inventions, technological advancements, innovation etc. will fuel new jobs. You cannot see them now because they have not been...

Dream on.

It was a dumb thread that deserved to be moved.... I doubt the OP even knew this was the Martingale strategy. He titled the thread "100% winning strategy", what does that tell you?
