The Economic Impact of the G20 Ending Oil Subsidies

In all honesty if you were in their shoes you would live in a cardboard box and burn wood for heat and drive a steam powered car??

No matter what side of the fence your on in politics. The facts remain that they are influenced by some sort of big business. Whether its alternative energy, health care, energy or the military industrial complex. Deal with it or rally for an overall change in our govt.

Besides I am not really taking a stance on health care but I find it funny when so many people are against using our money for something that benefits us. But are all for spending hundreds of billions yearly on building up our military so we can bomb random middle eastern countries like Iraq. Or poor billions into Israel

BofA Makes SEC Charges on False Statements Go Away in a Hurry

Although this may be viewed as a stupid comment. The robot picuture is probably the funniest yet most realistic view of market reaction I have scene yet.

Newton's Third Law: DJIA Poised for Epic Rise?

Newton's Third Law of motion is actually:

Whenever a first body exerts a force F on a second body, the second body exerts a force −F on the first body. F and −F are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction

The Bulls and the Bears are essentialyl the manifestations of Newton's Third Law in the market. Since the opposite force -F is felt only while the implied force F is well forcing the object.

If you want to talk physics you should be looking at Hooke's Law of Elasticity. Which describes the behaviour of the extension of a spring from equilibrium and the restoring force which tends to offshoot hte equilibrium position into another direction. This would indeed indicate we may ride up for a while after last weeks bounce but the restoring force is going to just drag it back down again until equilibrium is achieved.

Of course springs are much too simplistic anyway to realistically relate to the market but its a better rough representation or application the Newton's Third Law.

Jon Stewart Takes on Goldman Sachs [Video]

Cheers Uncommon. I am glad there is someone else in the world with a pragmattic mind to see the truth.

In the end the left service one set of companies the right another set of companies and they rally the heards of sheeple on rhetoric nonsense. Anything you can take sides on like abortion, gay rights or what the new name for french fries should be.

I can see what your saying but just to note i was not saying we should eliminate our military but we can like you say, decrease our spending by 25% and healthcare wouldn't be an issue. Moreover, we'd still have the largest military. A lot of people fail to realize the proportions the gov't spends on things.

Will Rising Oil Prices Prevent a Recovery?

Thats probably the most unintelligent thing I have ever read. Sure I agree with you about the weaking dollar and speculation but bring some base to your arguement. Instead of ignorant rhetoric.
