    • Paulson and Bernanke: A Conspiracy of Dunces [view article]
      Bernanke has a distorted view of the causes of the Great Depression. His "dumping money out of helicopter" (his words) solution to Deflation shows a fatal misunderstanding of the "fix". Japan had "free" money for ten years in '90's- good risks did not wish to borrow even at zero percent.
      Printing (even more) money will cause dumping of Treasury bonds by foreigners. A Depression is inevitable, the govt. can make it worse, I am sure. Small chance they can make it a little better, but a chance.       Oct 02 02:34 PM
    • What is Hank Paulson Thinking? [view article]
      Just to be clear- the merging of interests of Government and big business is Fascism, not socialism. The Depression must be gone through, it is just a question of how much worse the government will make it. Sep 30 12:31 PM
    • FBI Investigates Victims of the Financial Fallout [view article]
      Fine, jail crooked shorts. But blaming honest speculators who saw what the Wall Street terrorists (bankers/Fed/Treasury) had done and understood that all credit bubbles burst, and this was the biggest bubble in history, is misguided. Blame the regulators and politicians from both parties who were bought off. Do not be jealous of people who knew a ponzi scheme when they saw one- the honest shorts who did try to warn you and others and were scoffed at. "house prices always go up" I was told. When I showed you in blackand white that that was not true, you said, " well, they won't go down this time". Sep 25 10:39 AM
    • What Should a Banking Crisis Bill Really Look Like? [view article]
      Great article, thank you. Sep 24 11:42 AM
    • A World Without Shorts [view article]
      I assume your "Financial Terrorists" comment was sarcastic. Clearly the financial terrorists are the Wall Street banks who looted the system for trillions of dollars.
      A question: why would anyone pay their credit card bills if the Govt. forces taxpayers to absorb trillions in losses from banks off balance sheet worthless holdings? And why wouldn't the bankers and politicians not be jailed who exempted banks from off-balance sheet rules after the Enron "lesson".       Sep 19 04:59 PM
    • Since When Is Getting a Loan Being 'Bailed Out'? [view article]
      Look up "free enterprise" in the dictionary. The banks are Bankrupt. Not a bailout? NOT A BAILOUT?
      You know what, let's all say it was not a bailout. There there now. Everything is o.k. I do feel better now, thank you.       Sep 19 04:47 PM

      Whatever ones opinion on the near-term course of Gold prices, how can you not have 2-20% of your assets in Gold? Sep 18 08:37 AM
    • Naked Shorting Rule Means Time To Buy Stocks [view article]
      None of this will prevent the New Great Depression, but it will let regulators recall what it feels like to actually enforce the regulations.
      Let us restore the uptick rule so it can be eliminated during the next mania and then restored after the next crash....................       Sep 18 08:18 AM

    • Can the US Government Afford Future Bailouts? [view article]
      How about shipping each American a small printing press to save postage on stimulus checks. Each press can come with a small supply of blank paper, some ink and a magnifying glass- for quality control.
      Remember, all of this is taking place while some still believe we will avoid a RECESSION. That level of denial assures a 6,000+ point drop in the Dow over next 1-3 years.       Sep 10 09:50 AM
    • Stunning Reversals: Is This a Market or a Casino? [view article]
      One reason the markets "always go up over time", besides inflation, is that the dead losers are carted off and no longer drag down the survivors.
      The Dow will soon lose 3,000-5,000 points, and do so quickly.       Sep 10 09:18 AM
    • Buffett, Rogers at Odds on Fannie/Freddie Bailout [view article]
      Some of us who did not gamble would like to buy your house at 80 per cent off the peak price. Remember the free market? Sep 10 08:40 AM
    • Paulson and Friends, Translated [view article]
      Take away their fraudulently obtained salaries and bonuses, it is the only thing they care about. RICO prosecutions , not settlements with their companies (stockholders) money paying the fines.
      Fine them, then jail them.       Sep 10 08:18 AM
    • GSE Bailout Likely Marks a Bottom in Financials [view article]
      How very bullish it will be when Treasuries default, and China invades, and Bush is declared mentally incompetent. That will be a great bottom, and a great day for value investors, if they come out from under their blankets. We must jail the Wall Street Banking Terrorists who did more damage than bin ladin could have hoped for, all while wearing flag lapel pins. Sep 10 07:53 AM
