This is a good thing. Shitty companies should go out of business.

The Financial Services Committee can't even see the Fed's true balance sheet. You think they have the real thing on their website..........

It was pretty obvious when they started buying Nov./Dec. of last year. But then it came right out of Bernanke's mouth around the top in treasuries late Dec., Paulson gave his two cents that it was a brilliant idea to bring rates down. Surely you are not going to find any truth at all in any Fed...

Japan did it. "The lost decade" it was called.

Mortgage rates are down BECAUSE the Fed has been buying treasuries. They have been buying them for quite a while now. The other programs working??? Are you kidding? Had they let the big, crappy, criminal banks (fraud used to be illegal) go bankrupt we would be out of this whole mess already...

You are stupid. Sub-prime lending was only 1% of the over leveraging problem. Go watch some more cable news.

Govt can produce massive wealth. Just pass a trillion $ spending bill and hand it out to your buddies. LOL

Try Ritalin. Really makes you concentrate on whatever you are doing!

That's Sir Fred to you! http://uk.news.yahoo.com/21/20090226/tuk-sir-fred-will-not-give-up-pension-6323e80.html

Ha! Now that was funny. I think that was Trader666. And fitting for this thread as the Baldwin brothers are the perfect example of no brains and no skills but still "made it" in the USA strictly because of connections at birth.

Against my better judgement I will try one more time. Why do you assume everyone who sees what a terrible thing our corporate government has become is a poor sob. I am not complaining because I am not doing well, rather I am afraid of losing all the things I have worked so hard for. I have...

Yeah, I'm not saying they are saints, but they are self made and do recognize the problem of income distribution. As for Hilary, I just think she is your average hipocrit politician (WalMart, China, Unions), Nancy Pelosi couldn't pass a high school GED test if you spotted her 20%. 95% of...

Finally some content, buddy!!! But this applies to the future, not the past few decades the thread is about.

You have a lot of catchy one liners. A trait of an obedient Serf.

Try not to think of it as whining. Think of it as trying to get the people to wake up and revolt against our criminal government. This is how our founding fathers got things started. Do you have anything to discuss about this thread or you just come here to tell people to stop complaining and...

Yeah, wake up stupid, look around, "if you are not outraged you are not paying attention." Why would you assume I am not successful? I am a cargo pilot for a large private company and I am 33 years old, hence the username. What is your profession? Our country is broken and I care about it so I...

A CEO go to jail when the financial statements aren't right? Are you kidding me? Where have you been the past year. All the CEOs of our biggest financial institutions (and ratings agencies) committed outright fraud with the mortgages they gave out. They racked up hundreds of millions of dollars...

Well do you know how to become a CEO these days? Lots of hard work? Lots of schooling? Dedication? No, you have to be connected. All the corporate boards have been takin over by individuals who all play golf together, dine at their country clubs, and are interconnected with the politicians...

Wow, all these bullcrap responses and no one realizes the importance of worker vs executive pay, and the change to "Corporate America." In 1965, the average CEO was paid 24 times the average worker. In 2005, CEO pay was 262 times the average worker pay. Basically, the executives are...

I don't know, but I think the chance of gold breaking out here and holding it is pretty slim when I see 2-3 commercials every day trying to get me to buy gold coins.
