Quote from Landis82:

Not to hi-jack this thread, but quite frankly . . . I'm surprised that the American public has been so sanguine about what they've watched their Country go through over the last decade.

It's as if everyone has become "dumbed-down" or "drugged".

Congress doesn't represent the People, and it hasn't done so for quite some time! It only represents the Fat Cats in the Banking, Defense, Drug, and Oil sectors of our Economy . . . and more often than not, the REGULATORS have been in "bed" with the industry that they are suppose to be regulating.

Think that the American people had a chance when that huge entitlement to the drug industry called the Medicare Prescription Drug Bill was shoved down their throats by that corrupt moron Billy Tauzin of Louisiana? Oh wait . . . six months after he retired from Congress he became the President and CEO of PhRMA, a powerful lobbying group for the Drug industry. Think again my friend.

I don't care if you think that some of these people are "misguided" about what they appear to be protesting. I'm glad that someone FINALLY has gotten pissed-off enough to make some NOISE!

And just an FYI:

I was in college back when Volcker raised interest rates to 22% and the Farmers showed up at the Federal Reserve building in Washington, circling the building with their tractors.

I agree with everything you said. My point was they need to be protesting in front of the fed, white house and congress. Those are the manipulators and frauds.

I am also on pins and needles here with how this FTT thing is being played out, and I firmly believe these people do not understand the dire consequences and are being feed a bunch of BS about the FTT from behind the scene liberal socialist who want to destroy capital markets.

Hopefully, the White House and Congress will be their next stop.

Quote from Stok:



Listen, there is fault all around. But it starts with the guberment enacting rules to relaxing lending requirements and told Fannie and Freddie and all the banks to do it in 1999. Then, you add in super low interest rates starting in the early 2000's...yes, it causes a bubble!

Just to emphasize your point about shared fault...

I always hear the names of Barney Frank and other Dems come up with regards to relaxing lending requirements. But let's not forget the GOP lobbying/consulting group DCI that prevented the reform of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. I believe that GOP Senator Chuck Hagel sponsored a bill to overhaul Freddie back in 2005, but it got cut off at the knees by a superb year long effort by DCI.

In the midst of DCI's year long lobbying effort in which they undermined support for the Bill in a campaign targeting 17 GOP senators in 13 states, Hagel and 25 other GOP senators pleaded unsuccessfully with Senate Majority Leader, Bill Frist, the Republican from Tennessee to allow for a vote.

IT NEVER EVEN CAME UP FOR A VOTE IN THE GOP SENATE.
BILL FRIST DIDN'T ALLOW IT TO!!!

Who paid DCI the $2 million in consulting fees?

Freddie Mac.

Quote from Stok:


In our office, we have a mortgage division. And, hands down, they all say the lending requirements being relaxed started by the goverment is what drove the mad house. Remember, the democrats need voters...so they do what they need to do to get voters. Ala Slinton and barney frank. And get ready for dodd frank.....banks are hiring 100's of attorneys just to keep up and compliance....a damn nightmare again...we will see what disaster comes out this guberment regulation.

well that settles it. your office obviously has better analysts that the fed. never mind all the evidence discredits what you believe.
by the way fanny never took no doc stated income loans so how did they lower the standards to subprime?
 
Hey Guys,

Does anyone use lcd TVs to trade with (like 36 inch +)?

Just wondering if they are the same as actual lcd screens made for computers or if there are any major differences?

Thanks

No. Laugh at anyone who does.

The resolution is the same or lower as computer monitors.
 
The resolution is measured differently than a computer monitor spec.

Computer Monitor Example: 1,600 x 1,050

TV Monitor Example: 1,080p or 720p

Unless you've got a useless TV monitor and wanted to try it out for kicks, don't know why you'd do it. There are 32" - 42" computer monitors out there.

^-- good info

Seriously, don't use TV's ever, you'll show off noobishness if yo udo. There was a yotuube guy who was posing as a day trader who had his stupid laptop connected to his TV to make it look like he knew something. The red dislike bar was huge on that vid (can't find it though...)

The biggest computer monitors are 2560x1600, and 2560x1440. Unfortunately NOTHING is viable today over 1920x1200 or 1920x1080, because the only practical 2560x1440 monitors are the Apple and Samsung LED displays, and even those are difficult to stare at with the plastic over them. Even so, multiple 1920x1080 or 5:4 monitors (if you're old school) are not just the best way to go for ease of use AND money, but the only way to go without being stupid. :) Hope this helps
