.................................................................. Done today throughout Latin America....right after the boom boom music trucks....and cessna 150's dropping paper flyers.... .................................................................... The way the US is "progressing" .... They will soon be using these methods in Manhattan.... You got the right color card....you even get a job....
jim rogers got it a long time ago. what about you? (if u said obama gets it that would make for a newsworthy post.)
....................................... 1000% correct.....This piece was the beginning of the year.... Spot on.... Nice review.....that still stands.... The key take...."taxing capital".....and wanting a positive result.... = idiocy.....the Obam admin exactly as expected.... Very bad news......in that what was feared ....is really happening....
.................................................. Remember it well..... Same as in stocks..... 1% see it then 10% see it then 30% see it then the rest see it.... and then it's over....
ever consider that: 1) the environment that business created became too toxic for entreprenuers to survive in? 2) that the depression that we have been in for over 1.5yrs was too toxic for them too? 3) that these are non-political factors? perhaps not, just blame the guys whom you hate the most, usually works, just doesn't make sense, only attracts others feeling same. wonder what things would have been like with someone else taking blame.. hey radical thought, why not drag out and vilify those having caused this depression?, hmmmm, hits too close to home on that one...
......................................................................... Yeah....I see what you are saying.... But there have been no indications from the current admin. that they are going to dramatically cut the size of government ....as well as changing the tax structure.... 47% of the population and rising ....will not pay any income taxes.....and it may get to 87%..... ............................................................................................. What needs to happen.... 15% Consumption tax only.....10% State.....5% Fed no other taxes....none.... Eliminate the IRS Eliminate the SEC Defragment the exchanges to direct access fully electronic venues.....whereby there are no taxes of any sort....no dark pools....no internal matching....all asset classes.....impose size limitations.....SS by electronic tag predicated on float....no finds.... Margin 4:1 intraday, overnight....no account min/max.... The exchange is just timestamping software....no matter what you run through.....All public securities go through public discovery....Electronic regulation becomes simple..... All in the name of efficient capital.... IBs nor banks can be in the hedge fund or any other competing securties businesses....Banks do local loans....IBs supply the public symbols.... .............................................................................. The bottom line is that the US has to be able to compete head on with BRIC....one does not do this by lopping 0's off your currency ie Chavez.... One does this by "the above".... ......................................................................... Make it simple as possible..... The US needs lots of units moving to the positive..... A unit has income and debt..... The unit moves forward by 1) increasing income and reducing debt.....2) and moves in reverse by reducing income and increasing debt.... The Obama Economic Death Squad is implementing 2)..... and has made no mention of the above required changes....quite the opposite....rewarding those that created the problems....ponying debt on unborn children.....and positioning the US to never establish head on competition with BRIC.... The list gets longer and longer..... In short...the way it is..... Welcome to the New American Style Fascism....and the suppression of entrepreneurship....
what was that movie, with Morgan Freeman and Ben (something), where he and the president are at the Baltimore stadium, and he's yelling over the whine of the helicoptor: "the ball is in play". ever see that movie?, might be good distraction later on, well, before any new administration, whether Obama or anyone else would have taken office, the ball was in play, all that you're seeing was already underway with the TARP expanding guverment to what it is now, yeah, GMC stands for guvment motors, too so, linking the two events together just to justify blaming whomever is in office is as obvious as day, wonder what you would have said had things turned the other way? wonder why you're not angry with all those who voted and just stopped believing that (those who caused these problems) could fix them. people aren't trusting those suited minions in corporate abandonment anymore....
