    Economic Recovery: India vs USA

    Except that is not what is going to happen. IBM has offshored many "highly skilled" jobs. Engineering, Accounting, Programming, Chip plants, Design, Pharma and many other skills are increasingly moving to cheaper countries. Part is the labor costs. Part is the environmental, OSHA...

    HSBC bids farewell to dollar supremacy

    Frankly, with aircraft carriers, cruise missiles, longrange bombers, predator drones, nucelar submarines the value of landbased fleets is not all that important. So if China attacks Japan and we are not there to help, then Japan is in the toilet. If China attacks South Korea and they do not...

    Why do student loan companies exist

    I suspect it has something to do with the concept that an amount $X can be used to underwrite a large multiple of X in loans. But that still does not change the fact the govt should probably lend directly.

    Economic Recovery: India vs USA

    PLUS look at countries like Cuba or Eastern Europe/Russia/China/North Korea under communism, also usually managed/closed economies. Look what happened to China when they embraced capitalism and exporting.

    its a poor grasp of statistics when someone points to some well-chosen examples from their past, expecting to prove anything. That is the domain of the self-deceived and the mathematicaly/scientifically illiterate...

    Economic Recovery: India vs USA

    "We are broke... abandon all overseas military engagements and rebuild America." Most of our major companies are multinational. You think everyone would stop buying stuff from Chindia and buy from America, at 10 times the cost??? And you are basically saying that we will no longer export...

    can anyone recommend a ny securities attorney?

    since you are asking free advice, the least you could do is provide a synopsis of what you "wrongdoing" you plan to pursue... For a small case, against an established broker, advisor or otherwise, it is likely that their fine print will puncture your case before it ever hits the court. They...

    The last time right-wing hatred ran wild like this a President was killed

    Funny, when W. was president and Reagan was president, the Dems were doing the exact same thing. Like in Florida with the "recount" between Gore and Bush, the Dems protested nationwide for recounts of the recounts. COUNT EVERY VOTE!!! What they really meant was "keep doing recounts until...
