    Paul Krugman Tells it like it is

    He searches for truth within the principles he believes in. If you are a socialist than you search for the best possible ways to implement socialism. You are also honest about what you want and believe in unlike you, thunderdog and Landis. I can respect a socialist who is honest...

    What pyschology do you have to get in your mind to hold trades like this as the spike

    You don't understand what type of trader this guy is. He tries to make a living off 2k. He in no way has the ability to relate to a disciplined and logical strategy most successful traders use. I am not saying he has no chance of being a successful trader its just that his chances...

    Paul Krugman Tells it like it is

    http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/06/opinion/06krugman.html?_r=1&ref=opinion Much like the honest conservatives who were against Iraq (after no WMD's were found) and Bush's big government Paul Krugman is honest and does not dedicate his entire intellect to the defense of Obama. Rather he...

    POLL: Who engages more in hate and fact distortion? Democrats or Republicans?

    I am sure the middle class will be pissed sense Obama told them that they were getting a tax cut when in fact they are only getting a tax cut if they choose to this year and then pay the difference next year. There is no worse fact distortion then lying to people about the money in their...

    What would you do if your account was in this situation?

    First of all you're an idiot for using the buy and hold strategy. Sorry, I say that to all Buy and folders. Secondly you are an even bigger idiot for not following the one rule you need to follow when it comes to your strategy. Buy and HOLD. You have to hold no matter what. That is the...

    I Just Got Long

    The last two days have been completely different from the last month. In the last month whenever you made that trade into new lows it was a done deal once you pressed that sell button. Now it seems the market is not interested in making new lows seeing that it has tested them multiple times...

    Obama safety net: the TelePrompter

    The problem is not that he uses a telepromter. The problem is that he is an entirely different person when he uses a telepromter.

    Campbell brown debating? Has she ever debated anything? Have you seen her talk about the economy? She talks for five minutes about what Washington is doing and than she gives about two opinion sentences saying that the country needs help and that people need to work together. In...

    The Limbaugh Aversion and America's Apathy

    Yes I believe radicals on both sides hurt their own parties but the overall majority of voters aren't basing their votes on which party has more crazies. I think we both agree that the so called conservative republicans of the last eight years were not principled republicans. Besides the...

    The Limbaugh Aversion and America's Apathy

    I know that you think the GOP is in the gutter. I was asking what you think about the Obama administration adding fuel to the fire of the Limbaugh controversy almost daily. There has to be a motive other than informing people that the republican party lost the election four months ago? I...

    What Are the Odds of a Depression? WSJ Op/Ed

    Although this study is interesting it is speculative at best. The study that needs to be done is a comparison of the length and depth of all depressions and recessions when government intervention happens and when it doesn't happen.

    The Limbaugh Aversion and America's Apathy

    Limbaugh is a "defend the republican party" guy at all costs. He is a partisan who is convinced that the worst republican administration is better than the best democratic administration. Of course there is a similar percentage of partisan hacks on both sides it's just Limbaugh gets all the...

    The Limbaugh Aversion and America's Apathy

    There are in my opinion two main factors contributing towards this entirely artificial importance-lacking controversy about Limbaugh. The first factor is what I would like to call the aversion from truth and the ambition of Limbaugh. In order to understand the controversy one needs to...

    How would you start to become a succesfull trader?

    Developing a passion that relates to your own personal knowledge and study of the market helps. Not a passion of reading books and trading theories. Focus on the big picture and keep examining closer and closer. If you want to become a physicist you don't start off by trying to gain a...

    POLL: Do you think Stormfront has infiltrated EliteTrader's Political Forum?

    The only problem is that the definition of the less fortunate use to be providing food, clothing and shelter. Now it has been distorted into massive amounts of other entitlements that ruin incentives for self improvement and puts chains around the tax payers who do all the work. Social...
