Ron Paul: Let's End The Fed

Flood says...

I'm sure there are some that don't agree that the Fed should be closed. So I'm curious, what reasons can you come up with for why it shouldn't be closed?

Janeane Garofalo: Republicans Aren't Well-Adjusted

Flood says...

>> ^Winstonfield_Pennypacker:
I think - quite simply - that Janeane Garofalo is probably the last person in the universe to have any moral authority to comment on what is and isn't 'well adjusted'. She's a faux-intellectual who is so filled with bitterness, spite, anger, hate, and prejudice that she really shouldn't be allowed out in public, let alone offer commentary on who is and isn't well adjusted. Physicial, heal thyself. When she can open her mouth WITHOUT insulting large groups of people she doesn't know, then perhaps she will be fit for polite society. As it stands, she's just a tired, vapid, intellectually shallow troglodyte that the talk shows poke out from under the bridge on occasion to frighten the passers-by.


So you think a person has to have moral authority to express their opinion? Based on your opinion of her, I guess that means you think you have moral authority.

Tell me, how do you reconcile with yourself the fact that your comment exhibits the same behavior that you are criticizing?

Mass Market Brain-Computer Interface: Mattel Mindflex

Flood says...

Ugh, while technically a BCI it's about as sophisticated as an analog dial that takes a lot of force to turn. Might be a good toy to inspire children to take up a career in BCI research though.

Bizarre Republican Arguments on the Stimulus Bill

Flood says...

>> ^Raverman:
Those with money don't spend or invest. And the poor and the unemployed can't. People who are idle stay idle. Why would it fix the economy? what magic is this? will people suddenly one day have confidence to hire/invest/employ? Who's going to go out on this limb during the downhill slide?


You're right. Everyone is a manic depressive and we're all trapped in a downward spiral of despair. Who in their right mind would want to try to make money at a time like this? The stock market is lower than it has been in years, but gosh, it would be stupid for me to invest now, I'm going to wait until it is really high again. </sarcasm>

There is no magic involved. Yes, people will regain confidence once the bad companies fail and go away. Those people who go out on the limb first will benefit the most from the ride to the top.

Ask yourself this question. Pick a stock or two, look at its price, look at its price over the past four years, then ask yourself, what do you think the price will be in 10 years? 20 years? Higher than it is now? How much higher? So are you waiting to invest because A) no money B) waiting for it to go lower so I can reap a larger gain, C) waiting to see what companies are the failing ones, or D) thought there was magic involved in making money.
