    increase in troop numbers

    Many in the military see this relief as placing more risk on the troops. Occupied societies run smoothly when the civilians get to know the ground troops and the troops understand the customs of the community they occupy. By removing troops from the field all those local connections and trust...

    CIT’s Customers Issue an Urgent Request to Obama administration

    The hatred of small successful wealthy business people is terrible. Obama tax on wealthy for health care is a tax on 2/3 of small business profits. Now to let CIT fail is a hit to small business. Small business is a thorn in the side of unions. Obama is attacking anything that hurts unions

    CIT’s Customers Issue an Urgent Request to Obama administration

    No, much of the financing is in factoring. Successful, profitable companies finance receivables to secue cash flow for current operations. This is critical for meeting payroll and payables. Cash flow is the struggle of any small business.

    Do you tip?

    A restaurant makes most of its profits from one or two hours out of a day. The rest of the time the staff is standing around. It could not survive if it had to pay regular wages for a regular work week. Why not have the waiter negotiate the cost of the meal with the customer, then he keeps...

    Hidden nugget in the House's "health care for all Americans" bill

    I believe most Goverment employees are immune from lawsuits. I figure many Doctors will go out of privite practice and become Goverment employees. Would this protect them from malpractice? VA doctors are immune.

    Liquidity providers in the futures markets

    What?? There is no official position of "market maker". In new or low volume markets sometimes the exchange might pay a bonus for traders to trade, but only with paper "retail ". The rest of the markets are just private traders trying to make a living.

    Sanford flies high on taxpayers' dime

    This is an issue of entrenched goverment. Politicians of all party are so careless with peoples' money. Local officials are probably the worst. Many villages send their park district board to a vegas conference at great expense. I would make a rule that at least then need to use Priceline...

    Thanks jfilla, nice to have a snapshot of the internals. If a buy stop only got ran buy 30 points I think that is amazing. In the old days of pits, all the stops would have been filled at the top of the move. With most volume on the downside it says that there were longs waiting, of course...

    Obama's Russian handshake snub

    Obama seems to have an awkward handshake , it seems others are not picking up on it. It must be because he used to giving high-fives
