I have an idea. Why don't we entirely de-regulate the labour market and the financial market and watch the country burn?

Freedom means the freedom to use others as slaves because you read 'Atlas Shrugged' and suffered a life-changing psychotic episode.

Hrm, yeah, tomorrow I'm going to have absolutely no way to support my family or any tangible means to get them health care if they get sick. But you see, it'll be good for the economy in the long run, so that's okay.

Collectively bargaining a reasonable price vs driving their employer into the ground.

White House may use Wall St bailout fund for car industry
The Bush Administration is now contemplating drastic action to save America's three biggest car makers, after a $US14 billion rescue deal broke down in the Senate.

The White House says it is considering using the some of the $US700 billion Wall Street bailout fund to prevent the car manufacturers from failing.

...

"From recession to depression, for God's sake, I hope the President acts."

The Bush Administration has already warned that 1 million jobs may be lost if the car industry implodes.

President-elect Barack Obama is urging the White House and Congress to find a way to give the American car makers the short-term help they need.

INVESTMENT TIP: Buy 1 million penny stocks, that's $10 000, and then they go up to 2c, wham, that's right, you've made $10 000. Doubled your money.

That's preposterous!! How could that ever work! :eek:

You'll go far, son.

Easy when a stock/security goes low you buy it then when it rises you sell it.


It's up to you to know when the high and low is.


I made $500.00 this week from keeping that simple rule in mind.

Chances are you'll lose $600.00 next week doing the same.
