KT did you know the difference between USD and shares of a company?

The common denominator is that both can be printed and manipulated at will

one difference is that the USD is a piece of paper unrelated to any business but related to GOD ... IN GOD WE TRUST written on it ......... so it has appeal to God fearing people.......... like OBL his friends etc.

on the other hand shares issued by companies some time represent a valid business and many times an imaginary business ......... and God hands are not involved in them ......... perfect product for atheist <GGG>

what else in common besides paper ? ......one is mainly green appealing to those religious segments of the world who cherish green the others just plain colorful <GGG>
