    I do not joke about my money.

    Do you take your living out of the markets?

    Do you not risk your own money when you enter the markets? And garner all risk and reward?

    Jab away, if thats what your best at. I am just trying to have a discussion.

  4. Crispy, A funny thing happened on the way to the box office. Altas whimpered.
    --------------------------------------------------

    No offense but you sound like a typical PARASITE, sucking off the tit of some W2 corporate gig in a cubical or even better, UNCLE OBAMA him self, just saying.

    Second, it is no surprise that the movie whimpered at the box office.
    Nobody really give's a rats ass, just like in the book, about the condition of the US and its future.

    Citizens are willing to give up their individual rights, they are willing to be herded like sheep into the slaughter house.
    They want a Nanny State to pay their gas and pay their mortgage.
    They also want to live High on the HOG like the "Successful People with out taking risk and taking accountability.

    The average American is a Parasite. 45% do not pay taxes!

    The citizens will wake up, in the end and will be left with the very country they wanted.

    The smart ones will be long gone, making money in other lands or in states where PARASITES are not welcomed.

  6. Forgive Gabby, he's a socialist. Atlas Shrugged directly contradicts his ideology.

    Ayn Rand was a submissive. Anybody can tell that by the character of the woman she uses in her books. Howard Roark rapes Dominique Francon, just takes her, as she required in her psyche to fall in love. Dagny Taggart gets used by Hank Rearden and verbally berated the morning after the first time they had sex. And she goes back for more.

    You would think a real socialist could appreciate that? I mean after all, you work hard. Make as much money as you can, take all the risk and then you happily hand over your own money to support social programs that sends money everywhere except back into your pocket.

    Thats the ultimate in happiness for a submissive. Please the master, the leviathon of large government in this case, and get nothing in return except the pleasure of serving.

    A winning trader cannot be a true socialist.

  9. On the plus side, EMRGLOBAL's deep thinking seems to coincide with your own. Birds of a feather...

    I stated that an individual who risks their own capital should at the very least be able to appreciate objectivism or anarcho capitalism.

    You do grasp the concept of appreciate vs absolute agreement, dont you?

    Probably not as frivolous one liners seem to be your thing.

    Actually your too dim, or hung up on your feelings about the subject you didnt even realize my book review of "Atlas Shrugged" was a backhanded compliment.
