Surely anyone should be allowed to risk his/her money without the nanny state getting involved. If they lose it - tough ! Spend the money on something useful, like catching tax dodgers.

There are the Market Wizards. But yes they mostly crash and burn sooner or later so it is hard to build up a winning reputation.

Let them hang out

The revelations just out on money laundering, tax dodging etc, are going to make some top hogs squirm a bit. I like trading and don't want it taxed or stopped but the super rich are hiding their billions in dodgy little countries to escape paying their fair share.

Neither option looks much good really. It would be a huge upheaval to leave. The lawyers are voting to leave when they spy the juicy mess leaving would make. I remember the days before 1975 joining. There were major industrial problems. Would we go back to that again ? I hope not. So we are...

Have they solved the battery problem yet ? Or is it a 70 mile range on a dark and stormy night ? Hybrids are still better imho.

Don't ask what can you do for America, but what can America do for you.

Should be bought by Apple

I have just won the 1st quarter trading competition on T2W and I did that based on charts and neuro networks. However I am checking out Expert Advisors to make the decision for me. Mostly they are rubbish but I have come across a couple that are looking better. It won't be long before they get...

We are having the centenary of the Irish rebellion. Now here is an object lesson for all leaders of how not to suppress dissent. British troops squashed the rebellion by force. The leaders were caught and executed. End of story the Brit leaders thought but it wasn't. The cause has continued up...

Of course to look at the other side of the situation, who are the winners ? 1. The huge numbers needed for security in airports, train stations, shopping malls etc. 2. The military who are called upon to sort out attacks by radical groups. 3. Nationalist politicians who want a clearly defined...

The old ideas that now prevail in the muslim world should be challenged by the more enlightened muslims in Europe and the USA. Here they can and should put forward new beliefs based on the old scriptures that should hopefully give the muslim youth a chance to believe in positive and constructive...

For decades the only beneficiary of US foreign policy in the Middle East has been Israel. Their major enemies, Syria and Iraq are in ruins. Are they grateful ? Doesn't sound like it much as they defy US and the UN on building more settlements on occupied land. Looks like the US has been bought...

Oh really. Trump openly courts the KKK etc. He is the one getting desperate, not me. But then he knows he is appealing to the nasties in the USA. Probably recruiting amongst Hell's Angels and others. Just a new face of neo-Nazism. You aint been water boarded yet but just wait for what he has in...

I really don't see Trump doing anything for the workers. He is for the rich getting even richer and screw the workers. They are just kept going enough to man the machines to make profits. Trump could be the last gasp of Republicanism as they scrape the bottom of the barrel by cozying up to the...

Would Trump accept moslims that " conver " ? I wouldn't mind if he introduced the idea of collective responsibility for damage caused. This would force communities to control their extremist elements more or pay to clean it up after. The Twin Towers would have cost Muslim groups about 50 mosques.

So where are you going ? Canada is full of ex Yanks. Might find a space somewhere like Argentina I suppose, if they will have you.

Everything has its lifespan. Maybe reasonable moderate politics has a life span too as people get tired of the same old message. Opting for a wacko like Trump could be the indication of this boredom of the usual. Of course there will be winners and losers.

He is so full of hot air and bullshit. He is playing the patriotic card for all it's worth in an attempt to woo the white survivalist racists groups like the KKK. Well which politician in their right mind would want those bums anyway. The old fashioned conservatives have been dropped by this...

The biggest regret from Obama is that he couldn't get much done. So it will be for the next Potus. The US system seemed to be made to reign in the politicians once they have got to power. Could Trump, if he wins, get so frustrated that he declares himself King or Dictator and scrap Congress. We...
