    To bad we can't just hit CONTROL + ALT + DELETE. Sorry folks the system has to crash, only then we can scrap the parts and start rebuilding it.

  3. Are you an idiot? Taking guns away from law abiding citizens will not take them out of the hands of criminals. The second amendment will never be changed. Try to take my guns and you will be shot.

    Oh we can, just the idiots in charge won't let the cleansing happen. The government's bailout actions will screw us for many years to come. Plus the market will crash anyway and then they will look even more stupid than they already are.

    So I buy some MSFT and I have to wait for it to go up 1% before breaking even? That would dampen short term trading for sure!

  9. Great idea. places that have bans against guns don't have crime.

    As an added bonus if you ban guns then only two groups will have them. the Govt and criminals (not sure there is a difference)

    Lucky mr good citizen has nothing to protect his family when a riot comes to town.

    Where was that?

    Most of us Americans think hyperinflation is only a "post WWI&II phenomenon of Germany"... we're totally ignorant. (Of course, we don't realize we're ignorant... that's why we stay ignorant.)
