The crash of 1929

Arkie69 @Arkie69 (2156) • United States 29 Mar 09

If you study what happened in the 10 to 15 years prior to the 1929 crash and the one we are in now you will see one big difference. Prior to 1929 the money supply pooled up in the hands of the rich and the working man went broke....

Tony78 Arkie, Regulations is part of what caused this mess, deregulation would be a better choice. Most of these banks have more than enough money to operate, but congress wants them to use a specific accounting (mark to market) method that shows great losses on...

why do men make so much fuss?

katsalot1 @katsalot1 (1618) 12 Feb 09

Why is it that when men get ill, they make so much fuss. It doesn't matter if it's a cold or a splinter, they always seem to get it much worse than you've ever had it. The amount of moaning and groaning they do is so out of...

Tony78 Obviously men can't get pregnant or give birth but we can experience pain similar to that. I have known men with kidney stones, which supposed to be similar in pain as giving birth. I personally had a kidney removed last year which is probably the closest I...

Justice of the peace forced to marry gay couples

Tony78 @Tony78 (89) • United States 3 Feb 09

Many liberals want to make it illegal for ministers, justices of the peace to refuse to marry gay couples. They claim it is a violation of civil liberties. These are of course the same ones who holler that prayer in school and the...

Tony78 This is not about gay marriage it is about forcing others to perform their ceremonies. I know the Justice of the Peace is not a religious figure, but if he or she is a christian opposed to gay marriage those rights should respected.

The Fairtax Plan

Tony78 @Tony78 (89) • United States 27 Jan 09

I am a strong supporter of the fairtax plan, if you haven't heard about you should do some reading to find out how it would work. Our concern tax system is socialistic in nature and hinders some free market activity. The fairtax...

Legislation watch...ok, this is just DUMB

Ok, comeone guys, this is just stupid . But don't worry, trivial things like a crashing economy and rampant corruption will take a backseat to much more important things like silent cellphone cameras. I tell ya, I was...

Tony78 I was thinking the same thing when I read this. Well I don't have a cell phone so I would just have to carry a mini hidden camera. Videos are better than pictures anyway. I agree, such a bill would accomplish nothing, so of course it will pass with an...

What if we eliminated the IRS?

Troublegum @Troublegum (641) • United States 23 Jan 09

Ok so as a small business owner I spend a lot of time (read lost productivity) calculating taxes for myself, my business, and my employees. I file more paperwork than I care to tabulate. Larger companies have entire departments...

Tony78 Also, yes it would be worth all of the lost jobs, as the increase in our economy would better allow them and other unemployed people to find new jobs. If we suddenly found an alternative to oil and gas that we could start using tomorrow, it would save our...
