  1. Yeah, but no one said anything about the virgins being women...
  2. Yeah, except that the walking liberty is a half dollar... I think you meant to say Morgan or Peace dollar coins? never mind, my reading comprehension is done for the night... The silver eagle is based upon the old half dollar walking liberty design, therefore you are correct. I've never heard anyone refer to the ASE as a walker, but I get where you're coming from
  3. Is Mustard Card the street meat vendors version of Master Card?
  4. The next thing to me is an implied increase in the value of the new currency over the old. “To control the deletion of zeros without imbalance between the monetary value of the previous and the new value”. This statement is defining a difference between the values of old and new currencies. In a lop scenario 1000 would equal 1 before and after the change. We know this as a neutral swap 1000 for one. With no value increase or decrease. The above statement clearly states that there will be a difference in value between the previous and new currency. We also know from previous articles that both currencies will be in circulation for up to two years. They will have different values which is not possible in a lop Ruh Roh! This sounds like the OP is really confused... Having both currencies in use at the same time and with different rates describes a L O P perfectly. I hope I am wrong...
  5. Yeah, 10-4 on the fuzzy part... but aren't you supposed to keep your fuzzy parts out of the mezcal.
  6. I could very well be wrong, but it seems that it is rare to have a worm in tequila... I think worms are found in Mezcal (forgive my spelling, I have been drinking) and bad food.
  7. thanks for the article... it appears for the time being that the theft has been stopped (at least for the Cypriot account holders), but what will happen when the banks reopen? The seed has been planted in people's minds that the gov'ts and banks cannot be trusted and that it may only be a matter of time before the threat is made good. Would you keep your life savings in those banks?
  8. Beautiful, very well said... I can't figure out how to plus you from my phone, and will catch you later.
  9. I think that the challenge I have with your argument is that it seems like you assume that all small business owners are wealthy and therefore rich. Even using this administrations definition of rich being $250K and up, I suspect that you'd discover a great many small business owners as being in the very middleclass that you are worried about... it is those middleclass, small business owners who employ real people that will be hurt by additional arbitrary raises in pay scales, etc. I suspect that you may think differently if you were a small business owner and understood the sacrifices that are sometimes made to keep a staff employed... and yours is the line of thought that so many people have bought into. I attempt to say that respectfully to you. The argument that came early in this thread about taking out loans and going to college only to discover that your education doesn't mean much in regards to your paycheck is a strawman argument. The underlying theme is that someone (the student who cannot pay off loans, in this case) is somehow owed something, the entitled mindset, isn't reason enough to punish others. Please don't get me wrong, I don't have all the answers, but I think politicians and government getting out of the way would go a long way to helping America find it's equilibrium and start on the road to recovery as it always has. This prosperity will in turn allow more risk-takers to start more businesses, hiring more people and giving raises by choice to those that earn/deserve/justify them. Destroying the middle class and small business through mindless, arbitrary rules only ensures more pain.
  10. sorry about the repeating post... from Iphone, and hit add reply twice before it was posted and moved from my screen.
  11. Holy self-serving mindset... You can't really think that punishing the creators, the risk takers and job creators is going to help anyone can you? The more pisspoor pea-brained govt regulations that are forced on our small businesses in the name of altruism, the less people will be willing to take a chance on bettering their lot in life, and the less jobs will be available for the very people you claim to want to help. Destroy small business through central planning and the system collapses under it's own weight. Higher wages create more money chasing same amount of goods... The very definition of inflation. Everyone is left with the same purchasing power and no one gets ahead. Holy self-serving mindset...

  12. Would you help the struggling people at the expense of the small businessman who may be struggling himself?
  13. I don't know anything about them except that everytime I turn on the TV there is an add running. It just rubs me wrong that they allocate so much money for ads while our veterans are in tough straits... there may be nothing uncool about this, it just seems like they use lots of money in a way that raises awareness, but that same money is not then there to help the warriors. Not sure how much from every dollar is actually used in their support.
  14. Sorry, those notes are more than 100 years old...
  15. Nice idea Okane, simply said, join VIP ASAP. Belecosity, you may double check your theories... or maybe I misunderstood, which is entirely possible, but Nevada is OK for corporate registrations, but it is no Fort Knox when it comes to LLC's. At any rate, you will be taxed on any conversion and not simply when you take funds from LLC. An LLC is a pass-through entity and you will be taxed on all income whether you take it out or not. My advice, as was Okane's, join VIP, hire good advisors (when feasible) and/or start studying tax law. Do it before you just throw money into an LLC thinking that is enough. You won't regret it. Best of luck to all.
  16. I might add that neither Boehner nor Bernanke are acting like adults either. further, o is not doing "Gods work", rather he appears to be Satans work. JMO.

  19. Hee Hee... he said pump the dong sorry all, couldn't help myself
  20. 'bout time... I would have done this a long time ago.... I'm only surprised that this doesn't happen more often.
  21. No, wrong again... the employees/contractors who will be affected were to be laid off Jan 1, 2013 and by law they are to be given 60 days notice. subtract 60 from Jan 1, and you end up at Nov 1, 2012 a few days before election.
  22. Sorry, bloomberg's endorsement is only evidence of his ignorance. that guy thinks that limiting drinks to 16 ounces will, of and by itself, stop obesity in NY. he's also come out saying that Sandy is proof of global warming... again, he's wrong... Storms like Sandy have hit NY since before man inhabited NY
