    Is it okay to use forex signal services?

    An alternative if you are clever is to be trained up by a University type college. But how much are you willing to pay ? Here are some to consider but don't forget to insist on proof of performance. Don't let them fob you off with excuses. http://news.efinancialcareers.com/uk...reers-trading/

    What is the historical evidence that Jesus Christ lived and died?

    I sometimes think some are turning the clock into reverse time. The rights and privileges hard won over the years are being undermined. The Trump age of the super rich are behaving like the " Robber Barons " of the 19th century. Even there is the rise of 19th century protectionism and...

    Protectionism ??

    This is where Socialism falls flat on its face. Here in the UK Corbyn is going on with 70s and earlier failed policies. They just can't face reality but blame others.

    They have found a carved stone tablet for his sepulchre with his name on it. Could be a fake though.

    Protectionism ??

    Just as a matter of interest what are the US prices for :- 250 gram of butter 1 pint of milk 1 brown loaf 1 litre of petrol ( gas ) I will get our prices tomorrow at the supermarket. Brexit may raise prices a bit even though we will no longer be subsidising EU farmers.

    Protectionism ??

    Imho not much in life is 100 %. Many shades of many colo(u)rs maybe. Can or should globalisation co-exist with localisation and protectionism ? Well sometimes is my opinion. Which times you may well ask ? Ah now that is a good question.

    In Search of God!

    If there is an all powerful God then why did he allow so much suffering ? For instance if he could have stopped WW1 and WW2 then why didn't he ? Perhaps he will wake up and stop WW3 by dumping on Kim before it's too late.

    Protectionism ??

    It's the consumers who are going to pay this one. How much tariff is he going to slap on TVs. washing machines etc. ? It will be high to let the "start again industries" try and take root. Usually high tariffs make life so easy for the home producers that they skimp on R&D, quality etc. as they...

    Protectionism ??

    The Western economies have had an easy ride since the fifties. All of a sudden better quality products at a cheaper price are appearing. It is a tough world. Labour AND management both will have to lower salaries besides other cost cutting measures if industry is going to stay in the US and...

    Protectionism ??

    In my view protectionism is a clear admission of failure to compete in world markets. Protectionism belongs to 19th century thinking. Pulling up the drawbridge is because a country can't or wont compete in price and quality of goods. Trump just doesn't understand that it has been tried in the...

    Kyle Bass Warns "All Hell Is About To Break Loose" In China

    The national debt is like the trader's martingale system. Can look good for a while until interest rates go up a lot and then it's bankruptcy time. I can see Trump vastly increasing spending as he says he will and if times get tough reneging on the debt. If that happens other countries will...

    What is the historical evidence that Jesus Christ lived and died?

    To get back to sin. Ask yourself is murder sinful ? I and most others would say yes. But imagine yourself in the 1930s. Would it have been sinful to murder Adolph Hitler and save the planet from World War 11 ? Think of the millions who need not have been killed. You might say he should have been...

    PayPal - Bought out or competition drives it out?

    I have been using Paypal for years and highly recommend it. Very useful for paying possibly dodgy companies on the net.
