Greetings and Salutations !
I am writing this message in regards to your channel " Future" . I would like to ask that the description be updated, so as to fully explain in point form what the channel may be used for. It may seem to you as though it is self explanatory but I just went to find out if I put my fantastic new video in the proper channel, and I have no answer, the description is lacking substance and could be considered obtuse.
I am sure others have this problem, I do not know if its been said before, but I know for a fact nothing gets done if nothing is said.
Thanks for your time.


Any videos about the future go there. It's unmoderated.

I accidentally a whole grammar book.

I typically despite videos consisting of nothing more than static text and shitty music. And even though this particular video contained several excellent spider drawings, and it made me laugh a few times, I'm disappointed that this gentleman was apparently unsuccessful in using his drawings to pay for the bill. What a let-down.

My point exactly. It's just gambling. It contributes nothing to the economy. So why should banks be allowed to do it?

There is no tangible production created. Derivatives differ but mostly its betting, you are taking a huge risk for a large pay off, based around performance factors, everything from how well company stock do or not, how currency exchanges do or even how weather will play out, which was part of Enron's strategy when it introduced weather futures.

to put it another way... what actual, tangible production might derivatives trading promote or facilitate? Can it accomplish anything in the real world that conventional arbitrage cannot, besides sometimes creating the illusion of lower risk?

Not really since you derive the value from the original financial instrument, so if you are deriving the value off a risky mortgage payment that may or may not complete it stops being a zero sum game. Even more so when toxic debt packages are combined with other debts and financial packages.

Isn't derivatives trading a zero-sum game?

Never say "is comprised of". The proper word in that context is composed, not comprised.

Thanks!

Not every organism in a community of organisms is meant to procreate. Look at bees, for example. The fact that a homosexual couple can't procreate is irrelevant. For the same reason we don't force singles to get married and procreate, we shouldn't prevent homosexuals from getting married.

Also, polyester and computers are not natural. Are you prepared to renounce polyester and computers?

@ skforty -

Homosexuality is simply not natural. Just look at it like this:
Regardless of creation or evolution, humans are made to procreate as a couple. A male/male or female/female couple can not procreate naturally. If you could call it natural, then surely the human form would have been created/evolved to be able to produce children from same sex couples.

Can you look at that and say "Oh okay, well, yeah thats a concern" ?

not a dupe... it just has a small excerpt of that.
