  • The Truth About Goldman and AIG Becomes Clearer [View article]
    Bottom line: What is the SOCIETAL VALUE that these entities provide. Do they give us tax relief, employment, cultural upliftment etc? Do they ameliorate our health? To me this system does nothing . I'd much rather appreciate micro-banking in a third world country than these slimes, society's parasites protected by its cohorts who infiltrates the government. To me a Goldman worker as usual have enrich himself while at Goldman has really not seperated from it when he stops working there but become infiltrators in society in forms like government jobs or media jobs always protecting "mother Goldman". This is worse than the Mafia because it's the whole society that has been taken over these "Goldlmans".

    Have you been in China and listen how those employed by the government talks?. Haven't you read their attitude towards Taiwan?

  • Japan to the U.S.: 'We Don't Want to Exclude You, But...' [View article]
    China never forget. If the Japanese cut their cords from US defense umbrella, I wouldn't be surprised if their comes another war. The Chinese are very good business people but in a very underhanded sneaky ways. They are doing business with US for themselves to prosper, steal technologies. Their hate against the US never falters. I could imagine the hate they have towards the Japanese. But for their growing economic lot, I believe that they won't hesitate to throw it all away because of hate. Look at their attitude towards Taiwan. Good luck to the Japanese new attitude.

  • Obama Is Wrong to Impose Punitive Tariffs on Chinese-Made Tires [View article]
    This country needs works otherwise there will be like a depression atmosphere in this country. A little protectionist measure at this time may be helpful. It's been a long time that this US government under the influence of the capitalist rapist in Wall Street have allowed this kind of trade agreements where they roam the globe for cheaper labors while enjoying the comfort and amenities of this country. What jobs left to this country are burger flippers, checkout clerks etc. Now with this jobless recession recovery coming, Obama of course is worried for his own re-election. A hypothesis: What if US retreats to its shell with no imports, will it survived? Of course and there will be full employment.

  • Natural Gas ETF: Nowhere to Go but Up, Yet It Keeps Going Down [View article]
    This is the stupidity of this country. Practically the whole world is using natural gas as fuel for cars. Such simple technical modification needed and yet with abundance of this in this country nobody is talking about it. Everybody is talking about independence from foreign oil. Well, duh the solution is right under our nose.

  • Is Excessive Speculation in Oil and Commodities Markets Actually Occurring? [View article]
    Speculators should just take their money somewhere and gamble among themselves rather than using oil as an excuse to speculate. The amount of oil they are speculating does not even exist. Other than people or companies that hedges because they actually uses oil these speculators should bring their money in Las Vegas rather than distort oil prices so socially detrimental. Other than brokerages and speculators these game has no societal benefit.

  • Three Main Reasons for GM's Slow Decline  [View article]
    Planned obsolescence have finally come to roost. For years GM wilfully manufactured clunky, poor quality cars because that's how they plan it. They are banking that 3 to 4 years down the road the car they make will be replaced by more clunky GM cars and so on and so forth. But they have been misreading the general public. The seething resentment that evolved having spent more time to see their mechanics. The hassle, the time you spent and you are not even sure weather the car is properly repaired or the thing wrong is just the cascading events that will lead the car into the junkyard. Now I heard they making good quality cars which maybe too late to save them.

  • You've Got GM, President Obama: Build Natural Gas Vehicles [View article]
    Exxon pays $40 Billion in tax. That's nice. How much does the US spend just in Iraq a month, $10 Billions to fight terrorism.

  • Why Goldman Sachs Should Return Its TARP Money [View article]
    Give the money back Goldman. I never doubt that you don't need it. You just took bail-out money just in case AIG does not pay you. Now that your former buddy in the name of Paulson bail out AIG so it can pay you, you are now very secure. Plus a lot of your budddies are now in the government and their hands on the till there is no way you can fail.

  • Jon Stewart on CNBC's 'Worthlessness'  [View article]
    I am glad I found a forum to vent out about CNBC. There ought to have another channel that competes against this channel. That channel is the nest of greedy, arrogant, out of touch people. It looks like these are ceo-wannabes that didn't make it. They are so out of touch is hurts. Whoever produce and cast this channel should be fired. From a senile talking moron Kudlow to smart but psychopatic Cramer to greedy Cabrera. Santelli and that stupid-faced kneale these people represents what is so bad about Wall street. And they are surprised why there are seething anger in Main street

  • Santelli's Rant: A Watershed Moment? [View article]
    Santelli and all his CNBC cohorts represents all these greedy, (how about me) people, traders that were part and parcels of the failed decade. They are still there in CNBC whining all day under the guise of free market enterprise. What's really free about this market when the buy and hold common folks savings have been wiped out by the rapid fire naked shorting of equities allowed by the SEC. Common people has no chance or good companies in distress. For a change it's funny to see these people groan because they have jumbo loans for 2-3 mansions and Obama is not there to help. They may have to shell out all these ill-gotten gains to pay for these houses.

  • Stage Being Set for Hyperinflation [View article]
    Inflation may not be bad at this stage of the game. People will gravitate towards tangible assets like real estate. That toxic assets held by banks will be more valuable and attractive to private investors. So I believe the Feds should do that or may doing it already.

  • Radical Solution to Housing Mess [View article]
    This may sound radical but here it is. The Feds should reflate the economy like you know "controlled inflation". People's money will gravitate towards tangible assets like real estate. In turn the value of this toxic assets held by the bank will be less toxic and more attractive to private investors.

  • The Next American Revolution: Main Street vs. Wall Street [View article]
    For years main street was told to buy and hold. stocks and they did. We'll its like being told to deposit your money and belongings inside a bank vault with the thieves inside it. And soon you realize all these hard-earned savings ends up to be billion dollar bonuses, private jets, orgies and parties by these Wall Street executives, hedge funds, mutual fund managers and wall street workers. I am no partisan but this market has only caused losses to buy and hold investors since Reagan deregulation and Greenspan gobbledegook eras. With Obama coming in, hopefully all these "brilliant Wall street crooks " be thrown to the real street to make hard-earned living.
