  • Preserve Your Wealth Before The World's Central Banks Destroy It [View article]
    Yeah, like the Chicago banks owned by the Italian Mafia? Like Obamaland?

    Why don't we just lease out Congress and the Senate to Pakistan and Libya to balance the Budget. We don't need 'em over here if all they can discuss is gay marriage all the time anyhow. And the upside is so many over there believe it's where their taxes have been going already.

    Maybe they're right! And they can legalize marihuana over there since it's such a favorite topic or sumpthin.

  • Why Rosetta Genomics Is Deeply Undervalued [View article]
    These Doctors aren't poor though. They are making money in other areas of medicine indirectly involved with this venture most likely, and generally the tests are conducted at University Hospitals due to the staff being much more capable of indepth analysis of results.

    Thus the hospitals are also co-inventors by contract and bear the brunt of results as well as the fatter wallets from successes in development. Costs are mostly filing and administrative expenses covered by research grants commonly in every test of medical improvements.

  • Preserve Your Wealth Before The World's Central Banks Destroy It [View article]
    After rereading the article I am stuck on one issue, I can't figure out where you plan to buy any farmland with water rights. That's the cash crop of so many municipalities right now it's crazy.

    In my area some people are paying $300\month to water their lawns and take a daily bath. That's easily over 2 million a month for a little burg like the one that I live in with around 15,000 people and 20,000 homes.

    And people are freaking about the U. S. Governments multi-Trillion dollar deficit when the city water tab in Chicago is likely a trillion bucks a month.

    The problem the world over is actually the lack of an intervening Government body like the Fed in each and every country. There is no controlling entity in favor of keeping growth ahead of pricing and inflation anywhere but in the United States.

    They will deserve the bashing they get in freetrade of their only commodity - Loan Certificates. In fact, why is that product even included in GDP? It isn't even a legal product so many times the banks are going broke over their argument on the necessity of high interest rates.

    Usury.

  • Buying Intel At $23: Like Buying Coca-Cola At $23? [View article]
    When the Intel Devices have the software hardwired into them {phones, ebooks, etc.} then the stock will be as strong as Microsoft. And this is the next evolution in chips. After so many pipelines and memory additions are installed, the fastest raise in processing speed will come from hardwired programming. It would defeat most viruses, be resettable and permanent, and deny others ability to offer competing software.

    It's a steal at this time, and I wish I could dump a few thousand into them. They will be at the hundreds/share level in three years likely as more and more things have either an AMD or an Intel chip. Both are the main players.

    Think about it, even your TV and DVD player has an OS microprocessor in it now.

  • Cliff Diving: Will Congress And The President Destroy The U.S. Economy? [View article]
    Nah, just sentiment is necessary, everybody hates the math.

  • Cliff Diving: Will Congress And The President Destroy The U.S. Economy? [View article]
    But how does that differ from any of the past President's and VP's? All their investments are diverted to Blind Trusts after election, so this means what to you?

    Hence the Cayman Island comment above.

    That's the job of the Banks and those offshore investors in the Cayman Islands.

  • A Broader View Of Clean Energy [View article]
    The 15 liter engine Cummins is enormous. But the country has such huge expanses to cross, refueling the trucks often won't be in the best interests of drivers.
    I was talking to a driver the other day, his operator has to pay the fleets Visa account off entirely every day, or the next day they'll be going nowhere.

    Who knows, I ain't saying the company is a bad one and has a bad idea. Just not for everyone's trucking operation. The future isn't mine to own. The oilfield is truly fickle though and once the Alaskan pipeline opens up again, look for giant drops in fuel prices as our national production will nearly double in less than an hour then.

  • China: Don't Dismiss The Slipping Tiger [View article]
    The Chinese people are resourceful and very interesting, probably some of the nicest on earth. The Chinese Government is still an angry beast awaiting a chance to destroy anything with it's sheer mass and numbers.

    Investing in China is a reflexive ideal to insecurity sated by China's Communist Doctrine of stability in inflexibility.

    Why not choose Australian or German Markets?

  • Crude Oil Inventories Rise More Than Expected [View article]
    Well yeah. And when they re-open the spigot up in Alaska the entire scenario will change instantly.

    Regardless of the choice in engines for vehicle use, natural gas is the leader in modern day America for domestic use. It will be that way forever.

    Catalysts for hydro cracking heavy crude is expensive and comes from China or Russia largely. Plus several refineries have exploded in the last twenty years making it darned difficult to talk anyone into building another.

    I can reform Natural Gas into gasoline or diesel fuel without catalysts cheaper and faster with Ethanol and a pressure vessel to dump the gas into to intermix. It's easy and done all the time.

    This is the real deal about the LNG business, don't worry about engines that run on LNG. Who cares about it? It would be easier to reform the gas into gasoline regionally and tank it up than try to fuel your truck or car with it. We have to transport it to all the regular refineries for upgrading to even make them profitable anymore.

    And as far as new crude goes, we are likely topping the higher cuts off the fractions of heavies, then selling the heavy "crud" to overseas refiners to handle and further process for plastics etc. There are several considerations involved and America has had totally enough trouble with Crude oil refining. Let the Europeans and Chinese build their own exploding Rocket fuel facilities - we are okay with natural gas {and it's got enough highly dangerous cuts in it for the modern refiner}.

  • ONEOK: Gas Pains Ahead - OKE Is Not OK [View article]
    Wish I had insider info to make a better eval myself. But OK is pretty good territory for anything oilfield related.

    Natural Gas is the more modern and favorable choice in energy over crude oil for fuel or heating choices.

  • Why U.S. Unemployment Figures Are Completely Misleading [View article]
    Pardon my ignorance for a moment, but are only new hires a good tax write-off? Companies must train new hires and retain older staff to profit best from productivity in all but the most menial of labor chores. However, Foreign owned American companies are not legally eligible for American subsidies in Agribusiness {Farm} or Oil Production facilities and can not compete legally with American suppliers for military needs either.

    Any new policy to encourage higher employment numbers would also inherently include baring Foreign Governments and business alike from receiving the said payments from the US Government under most Democrat or Republican bill writer designs.

    Since so much of the American industry is now under foreign ownership over here in America {BP, Transocean,, etc.} , wouldn't that too add to a unfavorable hiring policy and shift in payout priorities?
