the one you were warned you about is a 45 year old guy from Cadillac, Michigan, USA

I'm just a busy guy who occasionally has something I want to say. Now, whether anyone is interested or not may be another story.

  • Short Term Trading Live with Oscar WELCOME TO THE OMNI...

    Rated Mar 25 2009 8 reviews daytrading, investing livewithoscar.com

    This guy is a big bully and his trades are too risky for the average trader. I made a huge mistake when I originally rated this site with a thumbs up. It is my feeling that this site should be avoided by most who are serious about learning to trade the futures markets.

    Basically, the style of trading here is sort of like a big roller coaster ride. Oscar would have us to believe that this is the only way these markets can be traded and anyone who cannot hang with it is a pansy who has no business trading.

    If you have a big account, a strong stomach, and you can manage to sleep only on Saturday, this may be just the site for you. But for the rest of us it just doesn't seem to be a good fit.

  • FEDERAL AND STATE POLICY TAX POLICY CONCERNING SUVS AND...

    Rated Nov 23 2008 1 review economics, politics ct.gov

    This document explains that while the government did not officially give auto manufacturers tax "credits" to produce gas guzzling SUVs, it did manipulate the circumstances so the the net result made them more attractive to both buyers and sellers.

    In a nutshell, business owners were basically given free SUVs because they could depreciate them over 5 years. And, while manufacturers were required to pay a tax premium on gas guzzling vehicles, these SUVs were excluded from the specification.

    Therefore, what it says confirms that the market for gas guzzling SUVs was manipulated by the government. As a result, the auto makers did not have much incentive to produce more economical vehicles.

  • HP-1285: Remarks by Secretary Henry M. Paulson, Jr.

    Rated Nov 22 2008 1 review economics, politics ustreas.gov

    For the past couple of years, I have heard numerous debates about the existence of what has become known as a Plunge Protection Team (PPT). For those who may not be familiar, the PPT is an alleged group of government appointees who exist for the purpose of covert manipulation of the free markets.

    One of the main reasons this is such a contraversial issue is that for the government to acknowledge such a group would basically be an admission of unconstitutional activity.

    In this article, I believe that Hank Paulson comes about as close to such an acknowledgement as will ever be heard. While he does not specifically call it a PPT by name, he does outline activities of the President's Working Group on Financial Markets (PWG) that sound very much like what has been suspected of for the said PPT. It does not, however, acknowledge that any such activities were executed with prior approval from Congress. In order for the activities of this group to be deemed unconstitutional, it would have to be proven to have taken place without such approval.

    I think this may be the very first time the Plunge Protection Team has ever been debated on national television. For those who do not know what this is, it is rumored that the President's Working Group on Financial Markets (PPT) will interfere with the natural flow of the free market in an attempt to ward off potential crashes.

    I seem to be getting some confused responses with regards to my prior two posts. I thought that the pages would pretty much speak for themselves, so I did not offer much of an explanation of my own.

    My thoughts are this: the first video, claiming that the coin in his possession was taken from a secret shipment of Amero currency to China, is invalidated by the availability of the said coin on the second site.

    Since the second site clearly states that these are fantasy coins, why would the U.S. Government be sending billions of them to China?
