A day labourer on construction site makes Rs 300 a day which is barely USD 6. And this rate is the tops for unskilled. A skilled labour can hope to make Rs. 500 to 700 a day i.e. $12-16/day and these include plumbers, electricians, welders etc. From the figures above one can image the...

It should be real nice to see how you cope right in the middle of a 'perfect nuclear detonation'. Your types are the reason why US faces so much hostility around the world. :D :p

There is another similarity: Like Germans, the US is also financing its war and war like efforts by issuing debt. While German logic of wanting to expand into Russia was 'more space' for growing population, the American logic is 'more oil and energy' for growing consumption. Worst of the...

Americans can make top notch technology items, excel in medical sciences and be top space race etc. but some their political decisions in the last 20 years seem to be outright stupid, arrogant and self destructive. Guess the intellectual elite do not like to venture into the politics. But...

Others can and will take OBL's place but they might or might not be as magnetic and heroic in the eyes of their supporters and sympathizers. War on terror is far from over. It would be a big mistake to declare an end. There are two ways of ending this war: a) by dialogue with AQ and...

I would repeat, only Trump has the guts, rudeness and 'give a fuucckkk' type attitude to take political and economic problems head on. Mitt Romney has business background but he is more of a politician now than a turnaround type of guy. Other than that US should come under military...

Mitt Romney was a governor of NJ or MS but did not do any spectacular job of turnaround of economy and finances of that state, so we cannot say he is the man who will help the US house. Problem is once in WH, the presidents have to tow the agenda of their parties and lobby groups and hance...

i bet if it was done under Bush or any republican president, US would have pretty much shut down for a whole week of partying and grand celebrations that would have thwarted the mexicans from taking a short cap nap............even during the night hours. :D :cool: :p

Removal of OBL does not make world any much safe. Even if US attacks Pakistan and removes all the terrorist cells that it knows, the problem will not be solved. Attacking or isolating Pakistan can result in nukes landing on the laps of the fanatics. Then we are talking some real...

elitetrader.com choose your forums carefully. :D :cool: :p

here is the real story in my assumption: Pakis hid OBL but US found him out. They gave Pak 3 options: a) US takes OBL out by B2/Drone bomb and then gets his body from the rubble by sending SEALS to whom Pak had to assist. DNA and other medical tests prove that OBL is dead in a drone...

This war on terror won't be over even if OBL is dead. Pakistan harbours and cultivates these terrorists on its soil using US aid dollars and turns around asking for more in the name of curbing terrorism. What makes a terrorist? Train somebody in arms and hide and seek and give them an...

Now that OBL is dead, will the US capitalize on the event or screw it up with arrogant decisions. Frankly in this volatile situation one does not really know what is a good or bad decision. GeoPolitics is a tough game. Anyways, a terrorist hero figure has been eliminated, world should take a...

sorry pal, in a hurry to rush out to get some damn good deals on the canned veggies, i forgot about the guns and also do not forget about a strong shovel just in case you need to make an underground dwelling with heating and cooling provided by the nature. :D :) :cool:

disagree!, by 2012-2013 world should be in a higher state of war according to the peace and astrological cycles. This excellent thread from bearice is a good preparation for that scenario. better start stocking up on canned food items, some sharp knives, a sack full of medications, warm...

Great global shift will be Chinese occupying eastern and southern Russia via illegal emigration of their people. China is no friend of Russia to count on at the time of need. China is no friend of Russia even during normal peaceful times either. There are only 1-2 other countries that...

Take the nuclear item out of the menu, there is no power in the world that can defeat US. Standing currently, USAF will take around 30 days before it gains total air superiority over Russia. The losses to USAF and US homeland in this engagement will definitely be much high but 30 days should...

Give $14 Trillion line of credit to any midium size country like Nigeria, Poland or Argentina and in two decades they also will be super power just like the US has been. Attracting best of the best talent and skills from all over the world. Geithner is wrong, there is no plan to let USD be...

There are two or more ways of looking at things. But long commutes are always draining and worst they leave merely 2 hours a day for yourself and family if you want to catch atleast 6 hours of sleep. :D :D :cool:

"Living like a king will unfortunately bring royal maintenance costs..." Well Said! I know few idiots whose philosophy is to live like a king, big house, top grade cars, top of the line eat outs etc. However to maintain this lifestyle they have to work like beggers, 6 days a week and still...
