Kick `em when they're down. ;)

The real fundamental problem is that a democracy requires a good and moral citizenry. One that's not about to vote themselves largess from the pockets of their neighbors. Once the looters get real power, it's all over.

Actually it is radical. From Bush `41, through two terms of Clinton and Bush, and even into Obama, we're a country that looks to the federal government for a solution to any and all things, no matter how small, no matter how inappropriate. Now we have a vocal group that has gathered some...

This crisis is greatly enhanced by big government, regulation, wealth redistribution and massive debt. So the author proposes more of the above plus new taxes as the solution. That beer they drink in Germany is obviously much more effective than this lightweight stuff we have here in the...

You know it! And they are keeping it hush hush, no mention of the story on the big news networks, nobody talking about this sudden, unexpected market closure. Something big is afoot, you can count on that! :D

How's that Hopenchange™ working out for everyone? Not so well?

Exactly. Market Psych 101. Evolutionarily speaking, greed gets tamed. Fear gets rewarded. If Caveman Og fears something he thinks he saw moving in the bushes, then there is not much of a price if he's wrong. If he is complacent about the Sabertooth creeping up on him, there's a huge...

LOL. But we keep going over the same hysteria. Just a couple years ago, everyone was all upset that we had plans to attack Iran. Of course we had plans. #@*&, we probably have plans to attack pretty much everyone. Yet somehow the `tards made the leap that plans meant we intended to attack...

Might be? WTF? What sort of mamby pamby loser little girls populate this planet? Of course they are planning this. Not only do they have plans in place, they update them regularly. And I can assure you that we have similar plans. Doesn't mean we're about to go to war, but everyone has...

With political correctness run amok in this country and thousands of Reverend Wrights telling their flock how evil white people are, there's more to come.

Greek two years are trading at awesome levels. Maybe I was wrong by a week.

Cuz he knows as well as everybody that Jobs is Apple. Without Jobs, Apple is Microsoft without Gates - just another big tech outfit. Actually, MSFT even with BillG was heading down the tubes worse than Apple was with Jobs under the weather. Yet there is that nature of corporate America to...

Changed the title. :D

Now too big to regulate. :eek:

Yep, thought the same thing when he announced that. Benjie can't do QE3 now unless he plans to be unchairmanned soon so somebody else can raise rates. It's amazing how few people get that.

Loderunner rocked. But I was a fan of earlier games, Space Invaders, Asteroids, Zaxxon (3D man!), Tempest (My all time fav). I think a fair number of investors are less interested in appreciation as they are in preservation. Few trust the Super Fed. I would not call it a bubble in the...

To be completely honest, I expected something by now. I mean, WTF, the markets are threatening bear, greek 2 years aren't hardly worth the paper they are printed on and the confidence on which our entire financial system depends appears to be weakening (at least to me). So from the Super Fed...

It's a well known fact that they have to restructure. The problem is how does it work. How much of a haircut? Push the short term debt to 30 years? Pay off in some strange new Greek currency or so-called "Bad Euros"? The uncertainty is very painful. Greek 2 year tanked today, Folks look...

I don't "need" to substantiate squat. If it's "rumour mongering" then there are no facts required.

Watch for interesting news after the close today.
