  2. Once again, cite? Where have you seen these posts? Earlier today, if you're talking about during today's trading, I said I didn't have time, at that time, for your faux outrage over politics and politicians. Today was a very interesting seesaw day, unlike yesterday, which was a completely boring day, and despite your immediate amazingly ad hominem, factless attack, I made the rational decision to wait until now to deliver my response. Losing money because I'm having a dispute with some anonymous someone on a forum isn't my idea of rational behavior.
    There was no disparagement of your trading in that post.

    For the record Boehner's plan ain't shit. Nor is any other plan that even has a measly 1% chance of being passed. That's the rub, that's the part the markets hate. Boner's Plan is like a heroin addict thinking about going 10 minutes without a hit and shitting his pants in utter terror. I suppose it is a first step and not getting high is better than getting high, but ten minutes? Uber terror? You're not going to make it without help.

    And that's the same thing for the US Voter. Boner's Plan is garbage! Sure, it is "step in the right direction", much like staying away from heroin for 10 minutes. But ten minutes and tiny steps do not solve our problem. We are addicted to way more government that we can pay for. Further, we've borrowed from the future to cover the most extravagant spending.

    We're about to get both our legs broken. And it doesn't matter what Boner and the latestest losers do.

    Ha Ha, nice analogy, I heard the culprit who is going to start breaking legs is code named "Moody's."

    I agree with you, in terms of the futility of it all, the thing with all these plans is that they dont even do anything to "cut" spending, all they do is freeze future spending increases, so if we are struggling this hard just slow down the future growth of government what chance to we have to make it out of this mess? We are going to end up like greece, but ten times worse cause our citizenry is heavily armed.

  5. I really wish the TP element had more back bone. It would be so healthy for both US and Global financial health if the House had actually passed a legitimate budget that drastically and specifically reduced spending, because it would, at least, force a substantive debate on the issue, force voters to figure out for themselves what the spending priorities really are, and how high that spending should be.

    But they folded, so we're left with dinner theater.

  6. "The term "Greek love" has long been used to refer to the practice, and in modern times, "doing it the Greek way" is sometimes used as slang for anal sex...."

    :eek:

    :D :D :D

    Or maybe better due to this. We waste the lowlifes and get back to producing right quick.

    I mean, who would you bet on? The producer or the looter? Sure, a bunch of lightweight producers'll get wiped out, but then the looters face the strong producers. Heh. Good night all evil doers. These lowlifes faces someone like me and mine. . . LOL. Good to know I'll have well fertilized lands.

  8. Thank you! Tinfoil is the most arrogant prick on this site, by a long, long stretch. I'm more than willing to forgive arrogance to someone who displays a superior intellect, but this asshole is just another idealogue.

    (Unless quoted, he won't see this post, as he put me on ignore months ago. LOL)

    Anyone who wants to slow down our record-setting spending spree is now a "nutcase." Golly gee. Tin Foil, just get back to your Walter Mitty existence as a "trader." You don't look quite as foolish in that capacity.

    You're the same one who calls for threads you don't like to be in the Politics & Religion area. Just the inane title and source of this one should send it to the trash bin.
