Has anybody else noticed that we get second by second updates when shit is going down but we're lucky to get a daily one if things are good? Shit if Koala's postings reflected the market and not what he wants to show us the market would be at like 500.

You are slow, but you eventually catch on, STUPID.
 
Dow falls 247 as European worries slam stocks
Stocks and commodities tumble after a spokesman for German Chancellor Merkel warns a fix to Europe's problems may take months. IBM results disappoint, and shares drop. El Paso shares jump on merger news.
 
The rest of society needs to be as equally miserable as the non productive demonstrators and must be made live in the same kind of shit pile they do.:D

The demonstrators are heroes, till Wall street fails and Mer/UD,seanretard and cerebialhemmorrage lost there pensions.

Blame Bush and/or Obama. Or the fed.
 
The struggle for Third World equivalence must go forth!

That's the goal of folks on the right in favor of eliminating minimum wage. If our minimum standard of living becomes closer to that of a 3rd world country, our businesses will not be so eager to offshore labor, right?

So much for trickle-down economics that never seemed to trickle down.

Retard

i'm amazed that there people out there dumb enough to think the OWC's will crash the market.

Sorry for quoting it and letting even more people see how dumb you are.
 
It's not intended to be a living wage clown, it's an entry level wage. The higher it gets the more unemployment of lesser educated folks will result.

So people who have entry level jobs should not have a living wage? You don't see just a teenly little problem with that?

Fantastically unproven right wing gospel. This "theory" has NEVER been shown to be the case, ever. Show me proof otherwise.

The little tidbit you ignore is that people who make anywhere near minimum wage quickly spend ~100% of what they earn. Bump up their pay and you bump up consumer demand an equal amount. You said it yourself: rising consumer demand is what creates jobs in America.

Ignoring inconvenient facts to make your argument is one thing. But you're actually ignoring your own stated theory. It's kind of creepy...
 
all this, from someone who has never had a real job. from someone who has never started a business. its okay, we know your not a real man. maybe you better get back to the xbox?

Meanwhile Herman Cain was on Fox News the other day defending his 9-9-9 plan against accusations that it depresses consumer demand by instituting a giant 9% sales tax. His response?

"That's the beauty of it. More people will choose not to spend and just save."

(paraphrasing)


This guy thinks that having consumers buy less stuff is a good thing for jobs.
 
In comes the obese maintenance man with his plan to cure all ills. To bad he can't cure his own stupidity, MORON.
