Re: Man Decides To Go W/O Money...

All the countries above have at least 60% government paid insurance. They control cost by controlling the profit margin of private industry and subsidies.

Re: Man Decides To Go W/O Money...

I have found no real way to opt out. I generally go with locally sourced goods but that has its own impact on the economy. Take wall-mart, like all big business they are there because there is a demand. They will stock their shelves with whatever is profitable (sells). If instead of boycotting them ...

Re: Just picked up my first '85 tercel SR5 wagon

Sway bar bushings... You will notice everyone repeat it here, I thought I was good. Mine were nice and tight till I replaced the struts. Still had a clunk after the struts, then a squeak, then 2 days later every time I hit the breaks the front end shuttered, she wobbled a little on acceleration and ...

Re: Man Decides To Go W/O Money...

Like the housing bubble the majority of our "success" has been based on the assumption of infinite growth. This has led to many speculative bubble's in the past and will lead to many more in the future. With the first boomers achieving the age where they can stop contributing to their 401k...

Agreed that as the market sits it favors the few at the cost of the many. The idea of shifting retirements to the market was grounded in the idea that the more who participate, the more transparent the system becomes. Gold is a reflection of market confidence, and it is now at a low. Look at gold pr...
