Socialized Heathcare… Do we want this?

Posted by: gauntlett In: Economy|Health Care|Obama

First Step: Watch this video on Canadian Healthcare Did you watch the video?  I would embed it so you can watch it here, but it seems that due to technological limitations (or decisions) that isn’t going to happen.  And no I’ve decided against figuring out how to circumvent such actions.  So, click the link already.  [...]

Guns and Ammo

Posted by: gauntlett In: Freedom|Personal|The Road Ahead

So, I’ve heard about the legislation that doesn’t have sponsors at this point on gun control. I’m talking about H.R. 45. You can find the link here: http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/C?c111:./temp/~c111tCkvxA Essentially the bill will severely limit gun rights once again impinging on our freedoms. Don’t expect this to pass unless we have a national emergency. The financial [...]

Withdrawal Symptoms

Posted by: gauntlett In: Personal|Random Musings

If my emotional barometer is any indication of where people’s minds are at the moment then I can only label it as coming down or recovering from a major hangover. It is the Sunday afternoon after a big night out sipping on your bloody mary to ease the pain. We have been living on credit and tons [...]

Banks are lending — NOT

Posted by: gauntlett In: Bailout|Credit|Debt|Federal Reserve|Finance

The theory was beautiful (well in the abstract)… Give troubled banks more credit and they will lend it out and the economy will stop its free-fall.  Now, that sounds like utopia to me.  Create credit and we will all be saved for unemployement, slowing production, decreased consumer spending, and rising interest rates. HOLD ON… let’s [...]

Banks win with T.K.O!

Posted by: gauntlett In: Bailout

If I had to place a bet on who would win… The major banks or the taxpayer… The BANKS win!!  Hooray the institution is saved!  Round after round of talks end in someone getting bailed out or should I say supported or prevented from failing so the whole economy doesn’t come tumbling down.  The markets seems to be happy [...]

Disgusted

Posted by: gauntlett In: Random Musings

Amusing yes, depressing yes… Therefore I ask are we just pawns in a game. A host to a virus that will keep us alive to survive. Do we go about our merry lives content with how things are and vote or not — knowing it doesn’t matter? Or worse voting and thinking that it makes [...]

India and China

Posted by: gauntlett In: China|India

I’m going to start a section on India and China, which I will eventually turn into its own section. For now this is mainly my mental vomit. So, the Shanghai stock market is down about 60% for the year, China is seeing factory closures, and what will the gov’t do? If they keep money cheap [...]

A little hiatus…

Posted by: gauntlett In: Announcement

I’m back! So, I haven’t written anything in a while, and my blog has been down. Neither bode well for a blog. Alas I’m back and plan to continue my revelations in the world. ~T Sphere: Related Content

Questioning Your Investments

Posted by: gauntlett In: Investing

So, investing is an art form much like any of the other “things” we do in life. If you are a musician you must practice until you become proficient, and then to become a master takes many years of dedication. Even then there will be people above and below you in terms of proficiency and [...]
