ok, but just don't go around saying socialism is good and Social Security and Medicare are socialist and see how good they are. I'll give you social security aint bad and can be fixed with a tax hike, but that's just more money out of my pocket into the governments pocket. Medicare? who knows...

I would sugeest exploring www.interactive brokers.com. They trade both forex and stocks. Their platform is extremely customizable to your exact needs. Before you make your first trade you will spend about 6 months setting up your screen and trading in your paper account.

what's good for me isn't neccessarily good for the economy. If everybody lived like me we would be in a worldwide depression. I'm debt free and you just can't hardly get me to buy anything. I trimmed my trading acccount way down in 2016 and that money is just sitting in cash. And no matter how...

yeah, except the reponsibility and performance part

when comparing costs, don't forget to calculate in the cost of cap gains if you sell instead of hedge

makes perfect sense until you try to balance the budget. Imagine if we had socialized housing, that would be really big. I don't think anybody thought they would become the two largest items in the budget when they were passed.

I should have it so bad

seemed like a good idea at the time. At least now we know how much that 25 basis point chip is worth.

the fed is just another player in the market, and they are a big player. They are to USD what ADM is to beans.

the haves are anybody the haves more than me if everybody was exactly the same there would be no inequality and the best way to make everybody the same is to punish anybody who is better

life would go better for you and me if you would just put me on ignore. You wake up late and start commenting on late night conversations which you think are new, and you always forget to take that box off your head that you sleep in before you start posting anew. To put it in words those of...

and he's just the guy to do it out of spite if nothing more the FOX noshow was just a shot across the bow

If they knew what I know, they wouldn't be buying when I am selling

laugh if you want, but during the cold war we spent a ton on the military. Money that could have gone to children for their lunch at school. But not one of those children ever died in a war with USSR. on the other hand, anyone with half a brain could have looked at the USSR economic system and...

yeah I get it, you pay more taxes but you get more benefits (after the government has taken their cut). I'm all for progressive income taxes, but when you start taxing things you don't like, you are just taxing things you don't understand. It's a socialist form of bigotry. Bernie (and Trump)...
