Those currently in power only know how to spend and tax. Modus operandii.

It's actually smart. All the marginals got blown out in the turbulence. 30 years ago, they let you deduct credit card interest. Hopefully, we are on our way to a flat tax with minimal deductions - at that time our economy would explode to the upside.

Yep. That's why Paul Rotter quite several years ago. Automation = efficiency.

And I am still waiting for George Soros and Warren Buffett to pay taxes on their gross income without deductions in order to set an example for the rest of us.

The Republican mistake in all of this is subsidizing through tax cuts and tax loopholes about 1 % of the voting public. They are just not greedy enough.

Whomever can write the check for Albert Puhols.

Hence the Republican efforts against motor voter registration laws. (don't make it too easy) Also, in urban areas the transportation programs for voters. (Buses picking up voters in affordable / subsidized housing) - look at the voter turnout during Presidential elections.

Ummm... Everything is prefaced with the statement "I can't believe..." I get along famously with non-judgemental atheists where you can find them. I'm a bit disappointed with the game shown by PeeDrinker and Gabbie... I miss the U. of Chicago in that respect. Non-judgemental progressives.

Ricter, did you like my Atheist cartoon postings ? Tried to be amusing and non-judgemental.

An incredibly compliant press has allowed the President and the Democratic leadership to go on ad nauseum without any metrics.

As we used to yell out in the pit: "PUT A NUMBER ON IT"

Kill this stupid idiotic abortion of a thread.

The only thing we have in writing is the Paul Ryan plan and the Bill just passed by the House. What you are speaking of is pure conjecture. Just like the Health Care debate, Obama is leading from the rear. We will end up with a big shit sandwich that nobody likes but everybody has to...

Well, of course. Since it requires a membership the fucking public servants will tax it.

This is what happens when 50% of adult Americans do not pay any income tax, and 45% of adult Americans are dependent upon an entitlement check every month. This is what happens when 80% of a political party's constituency is dependent upon government largess. This is what happens when a...

No, what you are missing is anything tangible from the Democratic caucus and the White House. Down to the last fucking minute and not one defined plan from the Democratic caucus or the White House. Not a budget. Not a debt ceiling package. Nothing. Hell, the Dems can hold a supermajority...

Time series analysis - GARCH and ARIMA come to mind. Not the panacea you might think.

There can be alot of spoofing and order-crossing going on in terms of gamesmanship - especially during the off-hours.

Bid / Ask sizing ultimately has nothing to do with the direction that price takes in the future. Initiating (aggressive offer lifting or bid hitting) order flow can be helpful for very short timeframe horizons.
