Just like the SEC reviewed the Madoff case when it was handed to them multiple times on a silver platter with the proofs already completed - i.e., Harry Markopolos.

I would guess that 90 % of my European clients ( about 20 to date ) have already opened accounts with Chicago FCM's because the futures commissions are cheaper. It is an electronic world - and this will just kill off what is left of the European clearing business.

From Wiki: The Cuban state adheres to socialist principles in organizing its largely state-controlled planned economy. Most of the means of production are owned and run by the government and most of the labor force is employed by the state. Recent years have seen a trend towards more private...

Obama only has until the end of 2012 to fulfill your request - clearly this should be a priority for him.

If this was such a quest for social justice - then why did not the Dems do anything about it when they had a fillibuster and veto-proof 'supermajority'? Dems could have done anything they wanted to with tax rates and deductions. Speaking of fairness - is it fair that half of adult...

This is all just a steaming crock of shit... rates don't matter - loopholes and deductions matter. Notice how Mr. Buffett never claimed that he actually PAID those high marginal rates he recites in the article - he has armies of tax attorneys and accountants on retainer for the task of...

1. Not nearly as much goes to education as you think - there are copious accounting tricks and sleight-of-hand shell games going about to shore up broader State spending. Dumbass States have been selling their lotteries to private investors in exchange for a quick cash infusion. So, in...

Lots of members do that. In fact, you won't find a trading-related post from Pee Drinker since about 2006. Seriously.
