  1. Mr. Rich, so how do you think anyone will make any money on this? LOP then increase in value?
  2. I heard this before but I don't understand one thing--why the US government would purchase oil. When did the US Government get into the oil buying business? I know that we have oil reserves, and does purchase some quantities to control the amount they need for some emergencies, but the US government doesn't refine oil to make gas. Private companys are the refiners. So why would the UST act as a middle man to sell oil to the companys?
  3. So how do we know when derivatives start to crater? Is there a Derivative index on the financial sites to watch?
  4. Thanks Markinsa, So if I gifted $12,999 worth of IQD to an offshore company in 2011, then I did another $12,999 worth of IQD in 2012, I would not have to pay any taxes...right?
  5. Nasty stuff. Keep your guard up. "One strain, called USA300, can lead to blood poisoning or a form of pneumonia that eats away at lung tissue." http://www.metro.co.uk/news/889131-flesh-eating-bug-spread-by-sneezes-and-coughs
  6. Thanks for posting Captain Wingnut! Logical and well thought out. Hope you're right. Plus one from me.
  7. Thanks Adam for the great chat and thanks KCW for the post. I am ready for this thing to happen!
  8. This is a great endorsement of Ron Paul by Kevin Bryant South Carolina State Senator: Dear Fellow Conservative, As a Christian, I firmly believe a man's faith and his values are something we need to take into deep consideration when choosing the next President of the United States. Earlier this week, I decided to endorse Ron Paul because, like me, Ron Paul is a man of deep Christian faith. Of course, Ron Paul doesn't always talk about his faith, because he doesn't want to seem like he's exploiting it for political gain. So today, I'm writing you to tell you a little bit about the Ron Paul I've gotten to know. Ron Paul is married to his high school sweetheart, Carol, and together they have 5 children and 18 grandchildren. Ron Paul is an Air Force Veteran, having proudly served our country as a Flight Surgeon in the Air Force and in the Air National Guard. While in the military, Ron Paul took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. As a member of Congress, he's taken a similar oath, with one hand on the Bible and the other held high. And as a Christian, an oath to God is something that Ron Paul takes seriously. That's why, during his entire time in Congress, Ron Paul has NEVER voted for a single piece of legislation that wasn't expressly authorized by the Constitution. That's because Ron Paul doesn't just "talk the talk" but truly lives his faith. For example, as a medical doctor, Ron Paul had two rules in his office. First, absolutely NO abortions. Second, his office refused to accept any federal funds. But Dr. Paul didn't turn patients away. Instead, he treated them for discounted prices, and if they couldn't afford that, he treated them for FREE. That's because Ron Paul understands that we are commanded to love our neighbor as ourselves in Mark 12:31. In fact, a few weeks ago, a Texas man named James Williams told a touching story to the national media about how back in the 1970s, his wife had a complication with her pregnancy, and was having trouble finding medical care. Ron Paul gave them free medical care, and he never even sent them a bill of any kind for his services. When asked about it in a news interview, Ron Paul didn't recall the story. That's because Ron Paul did these types of things all the time. That's just the type of man Ron Paul is and always has been. As a Congressman, he doesn't participate in the lucrative Congressional pension program. He's never voted to increase his own salary. He's never taken a government-paid junket, and he returns a portion of his budget back to the Treasury Department every year. Earlier, I mentioned how Ron Paul believes in a strict adherence to the Constitution and understands that national defense is the primary and most important function of our federal government. That's why he voted for the use of force in Afghanistan after 9-11, and he supported going after Osama bin Laden and other terrorist leaders. Our troops understand that Ron Paul knows what it takes to keep America safe, which is why he has received more contributions from members of the military than all other Republican candidates – COMBINED. You see, when it comes to foreign policy, Ron Paul isn't saying that we should never go to war. All Ron Paul is saying is that members of Congress should take their constitutional oath to God seriously, and if war is necessary, we should follow the Constitution and declare it, fight it, win it, and come home. The Ron Paul I know is a humble man of deep Christian faith. And I'm sure you agree that with the state of moral decline our nation is currently in, we need an evangelical Christian man in the White House to turn our country around. Ron Paul is that man.

  9. Thanks Thug for the news summay. Great stuff. Go RV
  10. It'a also best if all the vegtable and fruit juices are raw, fresh from your juicer; not pastuerized or processed from canned products purchased at the store.
  11. Great article by Chip Wood about the Federal Reserve and why something needs to be done about it. http://www.personalliberty.com/conservative-politics/stop-stealing-from-my-grandkids/ Some excerpts: Every time the Federal Reserve turns on the printing presses and creates “money” out of thin air (or, more accurately, creates a digital entry on a computer screen), it reduces the value of all the money that is already in circulation... The creation of fiat money is the only reason for inflation. Rising prices do not cause inflation, as the powers that be would like you to believe... John Maynard Keynes, the British economist who is widely regarded as the father of government intervention in the marketplace, admitted this truth about fiat money creation many years ago. He said: “By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens.” s also said that “not one person in a million” would understand the process. That helps explain why our government has been able to get away with it for almost 100 years... In the past four years, the Federal Reserve has created $16 trillion to $23 trillion in new fiat money. We don’t know exactly how much, and we can’t be sure where every penny has gone, because the Federal Reserve won’t tell us. It operates in secret. And it has flatly refused to share any of this information with Congress. That’s right. Our elected Senators and Representatives — the people who are supposed to represent us in Washington — are as much in the dark about this as we are. But whatever the amount, it’s a lot of money, folks. More than we owe on the national debt, in fact...
