    Reagan raised the debt ceiling 18 times

    When Obama took office he had the same two wars, the same prescription drug program, the stock market had already tanked four months prior, and two days before Obama took office there was a $450 B deficit with a CBO projection for $1.4 T in 2009 - those are CBO FACTS. Now look at where the...

    Reagan raised the debt ceiling 18 times

    Obama has absolutely nothing in common with Reagan. In fact, Obama is to the left of Reid in this debate - which is why this has yet to be resolved.

    Silver Gold Spread

    Too bad you didn't do the Comex futures as a synthetic spread - you would be in much better shape than the GLD vs. SLV ETF Pair on a currency-adjusted basis. Much better.

    Any good indicators for how many ticks to take in a winning trade?

    Trading range. You forgot to mention your average holding timeframe. You're welcome.

    hiding your trades

    That would actually be the last thing he'd want - every prime brokerage whom I am aware of has a prop trading desk... although most IBs are supposed to be segregating those desks out of the firms entirely. And yes, your futures orders do get routed through a credit check as they wind their...

    Flat Tax - corporate and individual. No deductions. One percent national sales tax. Balanced Budget Amendment with an 18 month exemption for armed conflict. Done.

    How the Deficit Got This Big

    Dickhead, when Obama took office he had the same two wars, the same prescription drug program, the stock market had already tanked four months prior, and two days before Obama took office there was a $450 B deficit with a CBO projection for $1.4 T in 2009 - those are CBO FACTS.

    Obama to address nation at 9 p.m. Eastern as stalemate on debt talks continues

    You misunderstand - Boehner thought the the timeframe it would take to implement 'gang of six' would not be practical in time for the August deadline. In fact, that is the problem with the 'big deal' Dems keep pushing - there are up against a deadline.

    Obama to address nation at 9 p.m. Eastern as stalemate on debt talks continues

    Shot down by Obama - he insisted on more taxes at the eleventh hour, which is why Boehner walked out on Friday. On Sunday, Reid and Boehner had an agreement but Obama nixed that one as well - in fact, he threatened to veto it before he saw the details. [b]Reid and Boehner will have an...

    Obama to address nation at 9 p.m. Eastern as stalemate on debt talks continues

    Ummm... I'm not going to take the considerable time to count up all of the mistakes you've made and errors of omission in your last few posts. 47 States currently have balanced budget amendments. The ones that don't are the Blue states with monstrous deficits. In fact, Indiana has a $1.5B...

    right wing nutcase kills 80 children

    (Reuters) - "Why didn't you come earlier?," survivors screamed when Norwegian police arrived after an hour in which Anders Behring Breivik had wandered the wooded island of Utoeya shooting dead 68 people, most of them teenagers. In a nation united by grief over the worst massacre in its...

    Obama to address nation at 9 p.m. Eastern as stalemate on debt talks continues

    I am amused mostly by the proposition that 87 congressional representatives who were elected in November of 2010 are keeping a campaign promise ( Obama take note ), and that they say what they mean and mean what they say. The MSM simply cannot stand it - what they hoped was a 'flash in the pan'...

    Obama to address nation at 9 p.m. Eastern as stalemate on debt talks continues

    I'm afraid that the President has so marginalized his standing on the debt issue that one more temper tantrum won't make one iota of difference. Geithner needs to go.

    Obama Stands In The Way Of A Debt Deal

    Geithner said this morning that 80 million Americans get routine checks every month from the Federal Reserve. Since those are monthly checks, they are either payroll or entitlements. That is astonishing. In 2010, the census tallied just under 309 million total Americans of all ages...
