Bailouts happened under Bush and the Republican party.
Keynes had some good ideas which should have been deployed only under extreme situations, nowadays the politicians just use the same reasoning to prop up their ratings. It's inevitable that the western quality of life comes down, even healthy.
Good point. Losses are socialized, profits are capitalized.
Another good point, just showing there isn't such a big difference between them. Except the health care issue, Obama did everything what a Rep president would have done.
Peterffy is very unprofessional with this ad. Not to mention a bunch of Western societies would classify as socialist (Scandinavia, Netherland,etc.) by his standards.
A financial transaction tax is still a very remote possibility in the US but it more likely to happen under the Democrats. It would be a real threat to his business.
We got elite traders on the '1/4% Transaction thread' advising everyone to vote Republican for this very reason.
Peterfly is advising the same, maybe not entirely because of the FTT but that will be part of the reason. He has mentioned in past conference calls that a FTT would really hit IB's profits.

1. Bailouts were going to happen, REGARDLESS. No attribution to a political party of person is appropriate.
2. "Western quality of life comes down"... YES... "Healthy"? NO... not for US.
Sir, although it is your own money (at least we hope so), how about dreaming on making the platform better, INCLUDING, for those using OSX and making sure that charts and basic features are up to par with the competition. I am sure many will say what about customer service....oh yes that...just start the department all over again....they seem pissed off, annoyed and bored and uninterested in helping when you call for help. Not including uninformed and lack of knowledge.
That would be a better investment of money instead of comparing a Eastern European economy (in the 1930's) to America now.
Thank you!

Bailouts and government giveaways have ALWAYS existed....go back to the 1930's thru 50's even 60's....massive land given away...for "nation building"...of course without going into race matters (we are already very very racially divided even in 2012 - almost 2013)....those that got the land for "nation building were whites....
So, lets check our facts first and really go way back in history....and you will see!
