I'm miffed, I have been do much research recently in to how finance and the economy work. I find it all very farcical, and the question begs why do we need credit? Currency that is traded on the open market is fiat currency,...

RK Finnell Even if this was done for the best of reasons for the child when the nuts come out of the shell it has the extreme risk of the nuts going way too far, like they always do. Something like this passes and parents could be hauled into court for simply being...

uath13 Well you did your research there. Personally I think we need to do away with the old money system. Our current system is supposedly backed by gold which is a luxury item. Most people wouldn't get or have much of it their day to day lives as it's not much...

Kevin You are right friend. I really like your views. I think the best solution to all these would be for the newspapers to speak the truth directly and after lots of research into a particular topic. Thanks for responding friend.

Troublegum It seems, with ebay, that they are tend to change stuff more to keep their web designers busy than to fix any real problems. If they wanted to change something it should be how feedback is left. It is a pain to do if you do a lot of feedback at once, but only...

gohan2091 As far as the new design goes, I neither like it or dislike it. What I want to say is I am not pleased with the silly changes eBay have made in the past. One of the most stupid changes was removing the right for sellers to leave neautral or negative...

the_vicar If the money is re-invested back intot the company or if you pay an extra employee, those are tax deductible expenses. If you take home $250,000.00 then you will pay a little more income tax on it than say someone trying to live on $25,000.00 but if they tax...

BubblyIan well spotted you are correct! Traffic lights cause congestion. of course they do! Clearly when there are no lights, people will try and continue through the junction as soon as they can. With lights they cannot do that, they must wait for a green light. On...
