    I think the multiple events can not be a good sign. A slow bulging sort of like a Mount St Helens type event.

    Maybe I should be selling my doubleguns brew of colloidal silver and GSE. Seems researchers have discovered adding silver to antibiotics increases their effectiveness. Duh.... silver is another antibiotic so now there are double dosing so to speak. Maybe I should send them a bottle.

    Notrub, I have a retired Marine check each month but I realize that both that and the SS check are in jeopardy as our county continues to spend money it does not have. All pensions and all transfers from the federal govt are in jeopardy as are any from the states. Here is an IMF working paper that talks about cutting those costs by 30% based on the debt from 2010 and raising ALL taxes by 30% so I assume the cuts will be much higher and the taxes much higher now that the debt has continued to climb much further. Read page one right after the cover page.

    I have insurance on my home, car and life etc...and I have physical for insurance on my finances. In the event that something terrible happens its there. There are many possible events that could create that situation but the most likely is a solar flare and congress just introduced legislation to try and deal with that yesterday.

    This year is a bad year for sun activity.

    Me and my wife travel internationally and we ensure that we take physical metal with us then because if there is a problem getting home I intend to go down to the ship yards and speak with the skipper of any freighter, tanker, container ship etc... and get me and my wife a ride home. Metals can do that where I do not have faith in paper because I do not know what the situation might be that might cause that problem. Again its just an insurance policy.

    I live in the country so thankfully I most likely will not have to decided to run or perish in place like many city folks but having metals might help those in the city get out but that will depend upon luck, meeting the right people and getting started early but that insurance policy might be what gets those folks out that move quickly and have something to barter with. If I am too old to do that I can at least provide that chance for my kids and grandkids and I can stay to perish in place but I like having that choice for my family.

    I know all of this sounds corny but you spent time in the service so you know we should always have a plan B, C, D etc...Physical metals are one of those alternate plans, not plan A and not plan B but its on the list. The insurance policy list, for just in case, but only just in case. I also wear a seat belt and have a gun by my bed for just in case.

    That was not my group it was a mutual group of investors but if you go back to my early days and look you will see that I spent a lot of time on SA traveling many threads long before I became involved with the group that eventually became known as the Renegades. I believe if your looking for some kind of recognition from the likes or number of comments you might as well skip that idea today since I believe those days are gone. Folks are getting smarter. Now its about what you say not how often you say it or how many followers "like" what you said. JMHO

    I have noticed that on almost all of the threads today the number of likes has decreased substantially as now it appears to be about content not popularity. You may not have noticed but I had ALOT of dislikes before they were removed from the threads and now there is only likes. I think a lot of the old "likes" came from folks who disagreed with the "dislikes". I try to be brutally honest no matter how many dislikes it cost me and I think that some of the "likes" were simply folks offsetting the dislikes they felt were undeserved. Some more of JMHO.

  • Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News [View article]
    I wonder who the Republicans "buy their votes" from and what they want.

    Bob thats easy. They buy their votes (more like trade) from the same bankers, businesses and military and industrial complex CEO's as the Democians but the difference is they also buy from the working citizens. The makers not the takers. Thats really the only difference between the two parties in a generalized way. One claims to take care of the makers with lower taxes and one claims to take care of the takers with more wealth redistribution but its really all BS.

    You will loose no matter who is in charge. Both parties promise their assigned 1/2 of the population something for their vote then both parties go off to take care of those industries that paid for the campaigns that were delivered to the suckers....I mean voters.

    Ron Paul could change this you know.

    I am sure the PR from this is more valuable than what they would have collected from a defunct green group. Quite significantly more valuable since that group probably has less money than the legal fees Lynas would have ended up spending just on filings alone.

    The data is in Utah stored by the NSA, there is no need for a warrant because they did not encrypt it as it originally was supposed to do. This would have required a warrant to get the key to decode it. Now they just sort through it as they please along with any hackers that manage to get in and all the other govt agencies that want dirt on you. IRS?

    The unions may have to go on Obamacare. Pensioners for sure.

    The plan also proposes to modify retiree health insurance, with many retirees obtaining benefits from Medicare or the healthcare exchanges under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.

    Amazing how this comment was deleted from Wallstreet breakfast this morning because:

    Dear doubleguns,
    We have deleted your comment because it contains material that is unrelated to the topic under discussion.

    My comment is below. I think it was deleted because folks are quite scared of this info getting out and wall street breakfast is front page. I assume it was a result of a lot of "complaints" being posted.

    MY COMMENT:

    Berkshire enters property & casualty market. Wonder how much info Warren got from the data base to help in this strategic decision. Not the NSA data base but the Obama data base.

    Guess who else has been collecting massive amounts of data on the American people? Barack Obama.

    According to those that have seen it, the "Obama database" is unlike anything that any politician has ever put together before. According to CNSNews.com, U.S. Representative Maxine Waters says that this database "will have information about everything on every individual"...

    "The president has put in place an organization that contains a kind of database that no one has ever seen before in life," she added. "That’s going to be very, very powerful."Martin asked if Waters if she was referring to "Organizing for America." "That’s right, that’s right," Waters said.

    "And that database will have information about everything on every individual in ways that it’s never been done before." Waters said the database would also serve future Democratic candidates seeking the presidency.
