Too Big to Fail, too Well-Protected to Jail
This is the swindle. Now don't believe everything you hear, especially from me. Listen to yourself and you'll know what makes sense.
Judging by the title and the OP's last reply, I would say that this thread needs to be euthanized...
Iceland protest ends in clashes
BBC Video
The sad thing about all of this is that it appears that Icelanders are calling for immediate elections to punish the bankers and previous government. I have yet to come across an article that brought up any real monetary changes besides eating...
I know I'm going to be alone on the island here, but I thought I'd share another perspective on voting within our current system.

In case you've never heard of Chuck Baldwin there are two youtube videos that paint a good picture of what Chuck Baldwin represents.

video of the terrorists
They even attacked people leaving the Labor Day Concert (apparently by accident, it happened to be going on near the Xcel center). There are children there and they are using tear gas. Can someone remind me...

55% loan losses?? Ouch. I wonder how many other foreign banks are still holding this toxic garbage.
Also, I'm kinda worried about the implications here. I understand why NAB would want to wipe its hands clean of the housing...

I know I have to comment on the article, but I'm not really sure what to say. Its the most spot on story I've read when looking at the big picture on the state of worldwide government affairs.
If you think the dollar has taken a hit...

I'm 18 and have never owned a credit card. I only own a debit card in my name. I can't stand the idea of debt so I make I have the money before I buy anything.
One of my friends suggested that I'm going to have a harder time in the future because if I want to get a loan, a car, or a...
I have a standard/perhaps old Air conditioner with a very small house. My friend just said that it would cost more to leave the AC on 78 and keep the fan on rather than leaving the AC on 73 and turning the fan off because the fan always consumes power while the AC cuts on periodically...

The only thing I've noticed is that they compare the dollar and euro in terms of BBL and then they compare BBL in terms of ounces of gold. So basically flip the purple line and you'll have a better idea of where things stand (its still...

What about Al Qaeda? I thought we were fighting them there so we wouldn't have to fight them here.

For those that didn't really understand why the subprime mortgage crisis was such a big crisis. It wasn't just because there were people who defaulted on loans. It was also due to the huge derivatives being set that made betting on...

I'm going to be in Chicago during Spring Break and I'm not quite sure of things to do there. I know I want to check out the downtown area and perhaps go see a museum or something. Any suggestions?

Oh wait, I'm sorry I forgot. If everybody does it (like vote for the Patriot Act) then its ok on their part, right?
What a bunch of cruddy politicians. So much for change. Its the same old politics from these guys..

I know I told myself I wouldn't vote for the lesser of two evils, but I'm actually scared of how tax rates might look under Democratic control. But then again there's the Iraq War and I can't approve of a candidate that wants to stay there longer...
Here's the idea in nutshell. Replace all these others taxes. Make a universal tax on every single transaction (buyer and seller). Based on the amount of transactions made the author says you would only need it to be about 0.3%!!
Please read it and criticize it. I know its not perfect, but...
This is the year is it supposed to go into effect. It was passed 100 - 0 in the Senate and 368 - 58 in the House (it should be noted that this idea was porked together along with tsunami relief and other things). The reason for the several delays announced is due to a good many states not...
Could someone explain why hardware raid is better than software raid? What if I had got a 1X PCIe sata raid controller and put two sata2 drives on it. Each drive can be accessed up to 3Gb/s right? But the 1X PCIe lane only supports up to 5Gb/s. So basically isn't that as fast as the drives...
We are presented with a situation involving mugging. A criminal is confronting an individual with the intent to rob. They have a gun. You have a gun too, but its concealed. If you made it aware to the criminal that you were armed, what would happen and why?

My friend was telling me about a party she was at that had gotten busted. There were over a hundred people that showed up and lots of them were under 21. Apparently when the cops showed up I'm told that they came in without anyone letting them in through the front and back doors. They blocked...

I hooked up the psu properly, but here's what happens when I turn on the unit:
It starts to receive power and starts to spin up, but then it looks like it cuts off power to the computer (the fans stop spinning, but then start up again in a few seconds). Plugging in a fan to the motherboard's...

I'm planning on buying some accutane online with the reason being cost. I'm doing the research myself and I feel responsible in where I'll be getting it. I also plan on talking to my doc and making sure I stop by once a month to check my blood pressure and all that.

Imho, I liked the first episode, but the second was much much better.

I'm thinking I should start with an acoustic first. I heard its very easy to learn how to play an electric guitar once you've learned how to play an acoustic guitar.
