Queen Elizabeth Crushes Wall Street

Tsing Tao said:
Yes. It's pretty much the enemy of any regular Joe. That's because it is corrupt, in bed with politicians, and manipulates just about everything there is to manipulate these days. Been following the news?



Wall Street sells companies to the common man? Perhaps a share of the company.



Just because there's no other alternative to put money in - not because Wall Street is doing that out of the kindness of their heart. Frequently, it is the union and teachers that get the shaft while Wall Street gets record bonuses.

I don't think I am a small exception. I have done very well owning the 500 companies in the index for a number of years, better than loaning the government any more money. Not sure what your problem is. It's really no concern of mine if Warren and Icahn made more money than me. And yes, I don't own the company, but I own a share of the company, thanks to Wall Street. And in spite of paying the spread and the commission to Wall Street, I have done very well for myself, much better than I can do waiting for the Government to make it fair.

And then lose it all in a crash when the casino front runs him.



I want fair and free markets. Wall Street has long since left that port. If Wall Street operated as it was intended to do - like the pretend make believe world you apparently live in with unicorns and rainbows, it might have been something. But it's long been rotten to the core and a casino where the "in" players get rich, and everyone else gets poor.

With few exceptions, of course.

ah well another fucked up disappearing reply, it's always the ones you put the most thought into, at anyrate, I have done well for myself by investing in companies Wall Street made available to me. Yes, they took a spread and a commission, but over the years that has been comparatively a very small expense. Not sure why you hate them. I don't love them, but I like them.

Government is necessary. That it can be captured by cronies doesn't change that. So why hate government, why not aim a little better and hate cronies?

Men are sometimes good, sometimes evil, but without government of some kind it's Lord of the Flies out there, or "life, nasty, brutish, and short". But who was it who said, "government is a necessary evil. Democrats focus on the necessary, republicans focus on the evil"? : )

Again, I don't plan on donating to their campaign. But anyone who goes after the true criminals gets a nod from me. Jerk or no. Some of you folks have become so polarized, so intent on rooting out the slightest deviation from your political alignment that no one on the other side can ever do anything positive. That's a shame, actually.

So true, a danger we're all exposed to and occasionally guilty of.
