Increase margin req's on OIL! -- now...

Discussion in 'Economics' started by limitdown, Mar 27, 2008.

  1. Anyone that thinks oil is high because the Treasury...NOT the Fed...is printing dollars is plain ignorant.

    The relative value of the dollar against other currencies has nothing to do with any printing press!

    :D

  3. Every time the treasury borrows another dollar and sends it to someone, additional money is created.

    As long as nobody ever expects to be repaid, there will be no problem.

    Simplicity at its best!

    Face it Ron Paul is right!

    Welcome to Socialism and get the F*ck out of America while you can!

    Tax the shit out of the rich (not refering to the stealing rich) Watch them leave the country as they already are! This country is full of dumbasses that will vote for Barack for he has a speach of change and prosperity! Oh reallly? What are you going to do when the cash flow of the rich leave this ever coming horse shit of a country of socialism!

    Yes, I am an American, but goll damn this country has folded into the ever loving end of stupidity!


    This country is f*cked! Why? Because people are to f*cking stupid to use their damn brains and why would anyone try to be successful when the GOV (Tax payers (your money))will support your ass!

  6. Endless leveraged buying of futures by speculators is a form of frontrunning the consumer.

    If you don't understand that , it's your problem.


    Speaking of inflation, way too many people make way too much money. Ballplayers, Wall St Thieves, you know.

    They frontrun everything with the overpayments and make it harder for YOU , a simpleton, to get what you need.

  7. i submit that you dont even understand 6th grade math.

    2000 to 25000 is a 1150% increase.

    it's incredible that someone posting on a trading site doesn't even know what a percent is. jesus f'king christ

    -----------------------

    Each person is treated as a economic income generator. In some respects I can understand the recipients point but on the other hand seems a tad out of control, nothing to stop the madness.

  9. wow,

    I am laughing at you, because I wouldn't even mention his name in vane,


    what's that?, what crackling sound,

    oh, lightening.....:D


    numbers aside, and good for you for catching it,

    it demonstrates the point,

    proportionally, the PDT rule destroyed the participation capability of the hyper active equity traders and the equity markets settled down to the point where it was so significant, it kept being commented upon for months on the financial news channels....

    if the increases in margin requirements for those selected futures contracts that are so essential to the financial health and well being of the US economy that we would go to war to protect the sources and access to oil, then some proportional adjustment of similar stature and dramatic nature should, could, might be discussed, applied or imposed.....

    simple enough logic even for a fifth grader to comprehend,

    oh, didn't get that far?, hey, there's still hope.....:D

  10. I am curious how you would equally cast your disdain and dispersion upon these last 8 years and the control of all three houses by one party,

    uh, let me correct that, last 6 years and overall stalemate of all three houses during the last 8 years,

    surely they are to blame to a very significant extent, as their basic theme was they were fixing what they perceived were imbalances, socialism and paying the poor to be poor through entitlements, rent subsidies and other supports....

    I am curious, would you express the same amount of blame there too?

    it really doesn't matter, as people are as blind as they choose to be and it seems like a whole lot of people have regained their sight,

    and set their sights upon what they consider a balanced economy, governmental support programs and other issues effecting the economy.....
