Why do people continue this exercise in futility of comparing Bush vs Obama? They're both beholden to special interest groups that work directly against the best interests of the taxpayer.

If not, I'm sure federal and state/local gas taxes would be raised to offset the wholesale price. The dirty little secret is that the politco's will make alot of noise about the consumer driving more fuel efficient vehicles, but in reality the government at all levels is entirely dependent upon...

AK47 must have early onset dementia. Even the pedophiles in Hollywood are "disappointed" with Hopey McChange. I know they must throw you a few bones each month for your 24/7 shill job, but really, have some pride.

I see that the lunatic has escaped the asylum once again.

So you start with "you are the idiot here" and then essentially agree that it was a bonafide example of pedophilia. Really, you've outdone yourself.

Did you hold your nose while typing that? See 2008.

Every day it's more apparent we've reached the terminal stage. Just blatant central bank/media manipulation every single hour of the day...to buy another day's time. Firms are also at the cannibalization stage, the minnows are gone, they are simply swallowing each other whole. Stick a fork...

It's been going on for months. It's something I've noticed for quite awhile. You seem to gravitate to any thread Maverick starts, it's odd, almost as if you are a fanboy of his or something.

Gus Van Sant. He also did "My Own Private Idaho", probably about 2 years before River Phoenix od'd. Van Sant has always been controversial, even by Hollywood's perverse standards. btw, reading between the lines of the Corey Feldman interview, I got the feeling that he mentioned age 14 to...

Not to hijack the thread, but why the f*** do I find that everytime maverick makes a post Max E Pad is literally posting a few minutes later? I mean, Max, do you set alerts for all of Maverick's posts? I'm sure that I'm not the only one who finds it bizarre.

Couldn't agree more. Hollywood has long been the source for all types of social/cultural "modification". I think it's even become something of a running joke that each actor that want's a good shot at being nominated for an Oscar OR for gaining real acceptance amongst the "gay mafia" has to do...

Add Pretty Baby (1978) and The Blue Lagoon (1980). Pretty Baby was the posterchild of pedophilia at the time. Heck even in the "swingin seventies" people were aghast at having Brooke Shields appear nude as a 10 year old. It really is tedious arguing with these idiots who continue to defend...

Very, very doubtful that they didn't know about that. MFG was at least partially motivated to "gun it" because their interest income had dropped dramatically from 2005-2010. Ironically, Bernanke has gotten his wish of driving everyone into "risk assets" by keeping rates at zero...

Yes, but there is more nuance than that, which was the entire point of my reply. We emerged from the late 1970's and quickly began an enormous credit bubble which coincided with these tax decreases. btw, I'm not trying to stir a right vs left political debate on this issue.

RCG Trader probably just burst a blood vessel.

The guy is a wind up doll. Kind of a "going postal" version of Gayfly.

There are just as many losers on the left as there are on the right. Just as much corruption, graft and outright criminal contempt. Hell, all one has to do is look at a shithole like Cook County, Illinois to get a good look at what "Democrats" will do with all of their grand plans...

Interest rates were in the high teens around the time Reagan was elected. Just lowering rates would stimulate growth as the construction industry ground to a halt around 79-80. Contrast that with 5 years of ZIRP and the exhaustion of every type of stimulus known to mankind...and yet we're...

Actually, it says more about affirmative action than anything else.

I've asked this very same question, albeit the path to becoming an MD is stringent enough to garner respect. The massive fraud in medicare/medicaid is probably responsible for a significant portion of "economic growth". Just like all of the other wasteful government spending. Without it, we'd...
