Talking of FAIRNESS ( yeah I know a dirty word in some places ) I would like to see ALL pensions put into 1 pot and paid out equally. Never happen in the US but could and should happen elsewhere. Now that winter is here again many pensioners are having to make a difficult choice between...

80% over $10m 70% $1m to $9.999m Worth over $10m - PLUS a wealth tax of 50% a year. :p

Nothing much changes The elite will let the masses have enough to keep them alive enough to do the work and grab the rest ! The poor will never be satisfied. They know they are being ripped off but won't have enough momentum until the elite denies them beyond a certain amount. Then there...

A lot of the rich live in security gated communities well away from the poor. They don't invite the poor out to dinner unless they have something big to offer, which is rare indeed. The poor always seem to have a "you owe me" attitude while the rich have a " don't sponge off me" attitude. A...

What a pleasant surprise to hear from an educated American who talks sense ! One can get a bit tired of high-fives, Greenspan's delphic like utterences that have morphed into Benny's burps and all that razza. Our idiotic politicians listen to the NEW talk and forget the tried and tested...

If the situation gets really bad as it might, I see armed gangs roaming cities in search of food and anything else they fancy ! The moral of the above is don't elect idiots like Bush and big money wasters like Obama Perhaps look around for some faceless technocrats to mend a broken system...

Consider this If a person gets caught stealing say $100 from the corner shop, they get a jail sentence. Right So where is there anything that encourages politicians to do a good job. They can at the moment waste the assets of an entire country ( e.g. Bush,Blair etc. )and even then stand a...

At what point do you intend to use your guns ? 1. A neighbour insults you or your family 2. Someone breaks into your house at night 3. Catch someone shagging your wife 4.That guy down the street who wears a turban thingy is giving you strange looks 5. Just to scare the neighbours 6.other...

My answer is NOT throw in the towel but upgrade your systems and beliefs. The crappy system was made in a hurry in 1776 and it's high time it was upgraded. Smooth system makes a great country.

I am surprised that The President only earns a meazly $400,000 per year. Peanuts compared to most successful business men. Prolly why you got monkeys in The Houses ! The average NY tradesman is on about that

If you really want to know how honest etc. the politicians are then request under the freedom of information act all details of those politicians convicted by the courts last year and last 10 years.

Q. Who has 2 legs and flies ? A. A dead hooker.

Scrap it imho

Solving the problem would involve a bit of sacrifice and hard work but surely not insoluble. A great opportunity for someone to come up with some improvements to a 2,000 year old system, which is over its sell-by date !! !!

Have a look at Prorealtime's new product. You can follow other traders' bets and see how they have done recently plus the usual charts etc. They have a 3 month free evaluation period too.

The theory of democracy imo is stuck in the past along with the Bible, Koran, etc Can't seem able to update it, so we have the masses electing the wrong sort of people, who can't do the job.

One of the major casualties of all this financial mess, is the probable end of democracy as we knew it. The crappy politicians just can't co-operate enough to fix the problems. And if they try, the public riots scare them into ineffectual efforts ! The Arab springers must be looking on...

My tax return List all dependents?” How about - “12 million illegal immigrants; “3 million crack heads; “42 million unemployable people on food stamps, “2 million people in over 243 prisons; and “535 fools in the U.S. House and Senate.? Apparently, this was NOT an...

Why not legalize drugs ? At least when most of the people are high they will be happy. Prohibition of alchohol didn't work in the 1920s and the same for drugs. People won't be told what to do by the Govt. Those stupid enough to get hooked are probably expendable
