Yes, he obviously has a feudal attitude that can only be corrected by proper, long term re-education processes.

That's where you're wrong V.L. Lets see, you want to eliminate banks, corporations, oil companies and Wall Street. And we should all ride bikes to work. Sounds like you might be on the wrong board. Read more: notmsnmoney.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=moneytalk&action=display&thread=3887&page=3#ixzz1Fuk14t5OAs opposed to bailing banks and bankers, not jailing book-cookers and crank-yankers, using lawyers to oust homeowners and purposely trashing the single largest asset in America and claiming that a kid with a degree trumps decades of experience? You invest in crime. |

"As opposed to bailing banks and bankers, not jailing book-cookers and crank-yankers, using lawyers to oust homeowners and purposely trashing the single largest asset in America and claiming that a kid with a degree trumps decades of experience? You invest in crime. "
And you invest in fantasy and escapism. TARP funds have been paid back. The "bailout" was necessary to stabilize the system and prevent total collapse and depression. Lawyers aren't ousting homeowners. You are only considered a homeowner if you 1) outright own your home, or 2) continue to pay your mortgage as specified. If you don't fall into one of those two categories, you are no longer a homeowner. A mortgage is a contract. Maybe you think that banks should just forgive principal because homes dropped in value, I do not, and that seems to be the consensus in this country. What's next? People stop making car payments or demand cuts to loan balances because their vehicle lost value? Maybe if mortgage brokers hadn't counsuled every applicant with a pulse in how to obtain a mortgage they really weren't qualified to get because commissions trumped common sense and responsibility, we wouldn't be talking about so many foreclosures. Don't talk about crime to me. You guys made a living riding the easy money gravy train for a long time.

It amazes me how people that have never run a business have all the answers. Same with all the people that have never successfully invested that have all the answers to how and why the markets work. As I have said many times in various ways, what you do or did in your life is UP TO YOU. NO ONE ELSE. You are the primary one that is responsible for your family, yourself, your job, your education, your savings, your investing, your retirement. YOU, YOU, YOU, YOU, not government, not Obama, not the unions, not the big bad corporations, not the big bad banks or investment companies, YOU. Government and more government is never the answer. Government is nearly always the problem. karma for you xyz |

The East India Trading Company needed capital to expand it's horizons and literally "invented" the concept of organizing as a legitimate entity and selling "shares". The idea caught on and was the premise for creating "exchanges" for buying, selling and trading "shares".
Cycles... Birth: Something rises from nothing and through great labor- achieves existence. Growth: Existence sustained, something expands on it's relative success in an attempt to duplicate through new births or new girth. Maturity: Able to sustain on existing laurels, past achievements, brand or reputation. Decline, Death, Reconstitution, Reformation: The four horsemen who inevitably come after significant coasting replaces growing, knowing, glowing with groaning. Every cycle ends with a mandatory ride on a pony, voluntarily or involuntarily.
INVESTING IN TODAY'S STOCK MARKET: We are a very long ways from the capital-for-expanding ventures days. The Reconstitution and Reconstitution horses were eaten by those who never could tell the difference between meats because they all taste the same before ketchup is amply applied. The remaining choices are so riddled with criminals, graft and rackets that no one knows the factual basis about anything.
Good luck.
