If I maintained an IRA, today would be the day to liquidate whatever's left in it.

I would wager, if I was at all certain you wouldn't welch on that bet.


Anonymous as you are to me.

I'm still waiting on my ten on the Taliban from Butch, who thought we were winning, five years ago.

 

[easyphloem]

I was told four years ago that we were making steady progress


I wouldn't have bet on it though, considering the source.

We're in the midst of change, we have no choice.

We can however, decide how we individually adapt and provide input into what we change into. I see two conflicting sides: those who oppose and struggle to continue with the bailing out the sinking boat (with a Big Icee cup)while tossing overboard people they believe are weighing it down, or those who swam to shore to start building another boat, this time using designs based off the recognized failures of the last design.

That post was a hoot oakie!

When will wall street be as optimistic about our new president as you all are?

 

[Chum]

I think Wall Street has toasted it's welcome. Soon, I hope Madison Avenue follows suit.

I think Wall Street has toasted it's welcome. It all kind of shows the failures of a system.

Always there's good that ultimately grows out of bad, the whole speculative market was faulty in the sense that assumptions were based on numbers without regard to current realities. We thought (with tainted influence) that oil and air were forever, materials and lifestyles rigid. Toss-in a not just a few elements of greed and permission and power and POOF! You got what we're all dealing with.

Are there answers to this in the Bible? Afterall, it was used to justify a large portion of this collapse.

Yeah Oak try James 5:1-6.

Warning to Rich Oppressors

1Now listen, you rich people, weep and wail because of the misery that is coming upon you. 2Your wealth has rotted, and moths have eaten your clothes. 3Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days. 4Look! The wages you failed to pay the workmen who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord Almighty. 5You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened yourselves in the day of slaughter.[a] 6You have condemned and murdered innocent men, who were not opposing you.


James was the man. Paul was not.

Brothers you know...
