siouxpster- i hope you don't mind, but i really don't like PMs. i'd rather have discussions in public so others can help shape and correct the conversation. sioux wrote: Hey what is the one thread you're banned from? I'll try and get that dropped. ha ha. thanks pal. don't you dare! that thread died two years ago. no posts since 2003. my one post on it was a compliment to scott (mannie) that someone else misconstrued as a political jab. scott explained that it was an appreciated compliment so that cleared the air. but... i never asked to be unbanned because it was not a thread of interest to me... soros made it for jim wille CB i know jim well... love him like a brother, met him in atlanta... jim kinda got mad at me because i used to tease him... 1) to get him to see the light and... 2) to keep innocent investors from following his poor investment advice. did you know that stockman_scott's thread was one that soros first created for jim wille CB? then he made another one to get away from having people post political posts on it. i was happy to leave that second thread alone to die from the failure of jim's economic theories to predict market movement because he refused to consider the political climate. those guys on that thread could NOT get it through their head that the moment GWB was elected and started insulting and issuing ultimatums to the world that it was the END of any growth in the stock market because it is a GLOBAL market. the stock market immediately moved to being guided by U.S. political/international policy rather than economic events. international hi-tech corporations cannot thrive if they can't trust the american government for supportive and trustworthy partnerships, policy and global fairness. jim is an economic theorist - he could never accept that the market was no longer subject to his complex economic theories that had no political policy or war data fields plugged into them. i think five years of a flatline market has more than proved who was right. and that is why you see the discussion all over SI is now filled with political policy discussion rather than economic and business analysis like it used to be. this too shall pass... but for now it's valid for market investors. S.I. admin. doesn't like it either but political policy is the nature and the catalyst of market movement today. the U.S. market is dead because the U.S. can't be trusted. i honestly don't think this country will ever recover from the damage of this administration. we could have been world leaders for another century or more. we had the lead in the new networking computer age. if we'd have encouraged growth in that area and shared it freely we could have guided all of the third world countries into prosperity in the information age (with the U.S. floating on top as the most advanced and looked up to as guides, teachers and facilitators). i think it was the biggest disappointment of my life to see the direction the U.S. went at the turn of the millennium. depression of the worst kind. end of rant. where do we go now? it is time to plow the fields under and plant a completely different crop. a whole new start from a new bag of different seeds. -dusty
