According to Gallup Polls,White voters are split on Obama v McCain, 44% to 50% respectively. Black voters however, favor Obama over McCain 91% to 4%. With 38 million blacks in the US, accounting for almost 13% of our population, and Obama’s lead at just 9%, is it possible that racism will choose our next president? [...]

Right now I am long the SP emini with a sold 900 Nov call. I bought the SP emini at 884.50 and sold the 900 call at 35. Right now I’m down a bit on the trade, but have a nice theta and my delta is only moderate. I like the bounce play but want [...]

Obama scares the crap out of me. He seems to be totally in favor of socialistic economic policy, and today’s Drudge Report release of Obama’s 2001 radio interview solidifies that belief. For the record, if Obama is elected, and has support from Congress and is able to significantly alter our economy to favor socialism, I [...]

As you know, my external hard drive failed recently—with all the digital pictures I’ve ever taken on it, and tons of video and lots of other documents. I’ve decided to go with ECO Data Recovery. I talked to people from them, Data Recovery Corp, and Drive Savers.  Although I felt like Drive Savers had the [...]

We’re likely heading into a recession. Our likely next president’s likely tax hikes on the job-creators will likely push us further into a recession. So it must be a horrible time to start a new company or invest in one, right? Not bloody likely. (“wrong”) Andy and I started DaytradeTeam.com in 2000. We were giving [...]

Worst Sign Ad I've seen

It’s Friday, so I’ll keep it light…. I was riding my bike the other day, burning a few calories when I took a break to take a drink and noticed a sign: If someone gets the point of the sign, and its not: “We can’t do big jobs quickly” “If you ask us to do [...]

I thought I was… I store all my digital pictures on an Acomdata external hard drive. The reason I do this is because I’ve had the same home desktop computer for about 6 years, but I’ve had to ‘nuke’ it 3 or 4 times to get it back to pristine condition. Well today I was [...]

No this isn’t about the Acorn scam, although that does frustrate me and concern me… This is about optimism and fact. I intended to write this poll about the fact that Kerry was leading Bush up to election day in 2004, but Bush still won. This was going to lead into a discussion about optimism [...]

I have not made up my mind completely. As you may know, fiscal policy and taxes are by far the most important issues to me. Generally I believe in a small government, low taxes and personal freedom. I consider myself a libertarian and am considering voting for the libertarian nominee for president, Bob Barr. Obviously [...]

Basic Economics: Taxes on rich hurt the economy

Liberals will have you believe that the top 1% richest of people / companies are evil and deserve to be bled dry on taxes. They’ll mention “Fortune 500 CEOs” and “Exxon Oil” as their ‘evil’ examples. And sure, for the pessimistic, ‘my life isn’t my fault’, ‘life isn’t fair’, cry-baby economic light-weight libs out there, [...]
