      So for $3000 in the top three, you would earn just under $120,000.
      Not bad

      Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News
      Re Lehman warns of big loss, from the link;

      "...The use of debt, which helped fuel record profits when markets were booming but also led to excessive risk-taking, has come back to haunt them.
      As Lehman and other securities firms now curtail their use of borrowed cash, it will be much harder for them to generate the kind of profit growth investors had become accustomed to."

      As someone new to market concepts, and making money by investing, the whole process described here (unsecured cdos, etc.) sounds pretty fishy. I'm assuming some investors were able to keep profits from the borrowed money deals, and companies like Bear Stearns, and Lehman are left holding (what's left in) the bag. The fed's weakened the economy by diluting the money supply in order to save the system, and some of the players, at the expense of a great number of Americans who play by the rules. I guess my question is this; does the bailout money end up in the investors income? And/or who lent the money to fund these funky financial instruments?

      Investors at Risk of Losing Everything
      BHAKTA is right. The Superbowl is over. Management won. Labor lost.
      Management is better equipped for survival because they own the means of production. And can erase competition because they own the central bankers, and obviously the politicians. Except for the politics in the authors article, I think he's right on. And... "Management" was a good word to start my comment with, but is probably more convenient
      than accurate in describing the group with the most wealth, power, and control, the second time it's used.

      Dear Advertiser: Your Ad Sucks
      The authors ideas outstrip his writing. Agree with fatcat, more questions than answers. What happens if “vacation rentals in Colorado” gets three million clicks? Is there a click cap?

      'You Are To Blame': Sobering Words From Dallas Fed President
      "No combination of tax hikes and spending cuts, though, will change the total burden borne by current and future generations. For the existing unfunded liabilities to be covered in the end, someone must pay $99.2 trillion more or receive $99.2 trillion less than they have been currently promised. This is a cold, hard fact. The decision we must make is whether to shoulder a substantial portion of that burden today or compel future generations to bear its full weight."

      Mr. Fisher suggests that we can vote our way out of this, and that it is our fault, because we elected the government that gave this to us.

      "I mean “you” literally. This situation is of your own creation. When you berate your representatives or senators or presidents for the mess we are in, you are really berating yourself. You elect them. You are the ones who let them get away with burdening your children and grandchildren rather than yourselves with the bill for your entitlement programs."

      WTH? No voting citizen would willingly allow their representatives to pursue a path of national suicide. Blaming the voters is ridiculous.

      This was obvious to the layman after BS Monday. I've always wondered what was meant by new world order. Guess we'll find out.

      "Someone is benefiting from this madness but it sure is not the consumer." No Sh*t Sherlock. "Someone" is factoring the American consumer out of the future.

      Windfall Profits for Big Food: Where's The Outrage?
      PAPPY7 says it all. Human nature. This outrage seems to come from some kind of utopian fantasy. Situational ethics. Why isn't there more and continued outrage at the bankers and CEO's and insiders that profited from the mess they created. And the government for allowing it, and even financing it. I think the barrel theory holds water.
