JP Morgan said, "Millionaires don't listen to astrologers, but billionaires do."

According to James Dale Davidson, September 21st is when it starts to crumble. Looking for a link..

Carello, I'm certainly not ignorant or a bigot. I won't argue with you about my opinion (which I said was posted on the wrong thread, anyway). I have more class than to call someone ignorant or bigoted on a public forum. How about just refuting my opinion instead without childish namecalling? http://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/presidential-campaign/32072-obama-and-bill-ayers-together-from-the-beginning

Both parties are problematic, but it appears there are more dangerous members of the Democratic party, as in those who truly want to dismantle America as we know it. We are headed down the road of being a third world country, a country of people who just want handouts, immigrants who use America as squatters and never truly assimilate or learn the language. We have a broken education system. We have parents who send their children to school having learned no manners, morals or value for education. Bigger government, sky high taxes and fewer and fewer freedoms every day. This makes for an easier populace to control. Margaret Thatcher said, "The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money to spend." How true. Food stamps are advertised on TV now. In the past food stamps would have been a last resort for hard working people, but now it's a way of life, with half of our country on food stamps now. Obama is trying to change the welfare law so that recipients don't have to be actively looking for a job. I have students tell me that they don't need to learn how to construct a resume because they are going to live off of the government. Wow. What have we turned in to? Is it all a grand plan to bring down America? I'm beginning to believe that. I have never come to terms with how an unvetted, inexperienced man such as Obama could be elected to be the leader of the free world. He is a puppet of Bill Ayers. He doesn't need a Congress. He governs by executive order. We are becoming a dependent society, just as they want. I saw this on facebook, and wondered how, as a society, we did not demand better. I mean all of us, Republicans and Democrats. https://www.facebook...1&type=1&ref=nf Above link not working: copy and paste to browser

Haha! Oooops...wrong spot. My bad.

Best post ever

Thanks for the "apology." Not necessary, though. I'm a big girl, actually much older than 14 Let's call a truce. I would rather read the news on here over the bickering. I'm actually a little disappointed in myself for stepping in the muck:)

No, and quite honestly I don't expect to.

Well, that was mature, Jackster. Hope you feel better now.

Unlike you, I don't believe it to be "mythical." If I did, I sure wouldn't be wasting my time here. I would find something that I believe in to pour myself into.

Just seems like a silly waste of time for you unless there is an ulterior motive..

So, if you are not invested, why do you feel the need to come on a board like this? Do you have such a big heart that you feel the need to save us all? Spare me.

How much are you being paid to encourage people to sell? Have you sold?

I'm curious as to why all of the financial wizards on this board always discuss M1 and M2, but never M0. I am no economics student, but it seems that the M0 would be of more importance when discussing actual dinars in circulation: Type of money: M0: In some countries, such as the United Kingdom, M0 includes bank reserves, so M0 is referred to as the monetary base, or narrow money.[11] MB: is referred to as the monetary base or total currency.[8] This is the base from which other forms of money (like checking deposits, listed below) are created and is traditionally the most liquid measure of the money supply.[12] M1: Bank reserves are not included in M1. M2: Represents money and "close substitutes" for money.[13] M2 is a broader classification of money than M1. Economists use M2 when looking to quantify the amount of money in circulation and trying to explain different economic monetary conditions. M2 is a key economic indicator used to forecast inflation.[14] M3: M2 plus large and long-term deposits. Since 2006, M3 is no longer tracked by the US central bank.[15] However, there are still estimates produced by various private institutions. MZM: Money with zero maturity. It measures the supply of financial assets redeemable at par on demand. The ratio of a pair of these measures, most often M2/M0, is called an (actual, empirical) money multiplier.

Hi from Charleston!

Texas Granny, the General is Hugh Tant if that helps. I don't have time to look for it now, or else I would do it for you.

North Carolina is the Tar Heel state. She must be a Tar Heel.

Does an IBC have to be in place BEFORE an rv to be able to take advantage of the tax benefits?

QL, I don't post much here, but I read this site everyday. I always look for your posts in a quest for a rational, humble and level- headed point of view. Thanks for the kindness and perspective that you have brought here. It's been a pleasure to read your thoughts. I hope that you will stop back by as you feel up to it and continue to share your thoughts and perspective. Peace be with you...

Awesome post, Bambino. And so, so true. The next one has to be great because we are on a slippery slope.....

GPCarter, You seem quiet and reserved, but I would love to know what your gut feeling is on the ID and what may happen. Thanks.
