    Getting it wrong could be a very expensive lesson.

    Where are incomes? Where is consumer demand (not investor)? Your question is flawed because the premise is flawed.

    Anyway, we all know what happened the last time you claimed there would be an expensive lesson for people who "didn't buy right away".

    You unwittingly helped my post become the #1 comment of the week for Patrick.net (with 1 dislike, obviously from you). Thanks Iwog. :)

    You're really REALLY trying hard to look stupid, aren't you.

    I admit, it doesn't come as easily for me as it may for you.

    A truly great president would have blown Frank Sinatra himself.

    In addition to causing 99% of the American population to lose the dream of their kids doing better than they did, Reagan also created the culture of lawlessness in business, the abolition of anti-trust enforcement, and big government deficit spending, all of which have had terrible effects on our economy.

    I don't deny that you posted that in 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2012. In fact you kept posting it until finally you were right.

    But how does that make you different from a broken clock?

    You posted the warning in July 2010, the peak of the post-tax credit market, and then prices dropped off for 18 months straight according to Case Shiller. In fact, they didn't hit their 2010 high again until late 2012, nearly 3 years later. So how expensive was the mistake to wait? For those who waited a year and a half, it wasn't expensive at all, in fact quite lucrative.

    That's the reason my post got so many likes and became the #1 comment for the week. You can call it trolling all you want, but people can detect BS when they see it Iwog.

    Here since this is hard for you guys to comprehend let me explain it.

    Gas is too expensive
    Insurance rates have sky rocketed
    The average new car cost $30,000

    The average wage for a 20 something is 20K a year. (With a college degree)

    any questions?

    Every kid that comes to our house to visit my kids, end up leaving their bikes, and calling their moms to pick them up. The new fixed wheel bikes are a sodomy torture device. They are desperate to get to their destination, then figure, there's no way in hell they are ridding that cruel device back home. These kids today can't even pick out a practical bike to ride, even though they should know, that as long as the Democrats rule Washington, it is decreed to be their primary mode of transportation.

    Michelle Obama will be wandering around Stockton fisting poor kids and teaching them to rob white people to pay for Viagara and have lots of kids out of wedlock to teach jihad and live on welfare.

    Yep, and can't forget that Pelosi gem "You have to vote for it before you get to see it".... Even Baucus, one of the 'architects' of Obamacare, is getting the hell out of dodge on this one. Like rats on a sinking ship.... Train wreck (his words) indeed!

    Why would you go by your drive as opposed to actually looking at the numbers? They're so easy to find...

    Yeah, man -- why would you trust your lying eyes when you can look at numbers on a website?

    I don't think you're capable of quoting me accurately.

    That's actually one of my strengths, and lots of people agree.

    There isn't a shortage of STEM workers - there is a shortage of STEM workers that will work for what many employers want to pay them!
    For example, I recently saw a job posting for a project engineer managing multi-million dollar projects start to finish, 70 hour weeks, 75% travel, professional certification (PE) required - and they were offering up to $60k/ year salary!
    The reason companies are pushing so much for high tech visas is to save money over hiring Americans to do the work.

    If the GMO companies did not fight labelling so hard and shove it down our throat, the majority of people wouldn't care much. But they continue to lobby and have both parties in their pockets and so people will naturally look at them with suspicion.

    People were never given a choice-at least in this country.

    These women need to know, yes, indeed, I can pick up a Toyota with my tongue and scratch my neck with my dick. Who will tell them?

    Instead of implying that I'm seeing hookers, he's attempting to imply that I've got a bad marriage.

    Let's see

    1) Claims that men are f*cked in this country due to marriage laws and unfairly protected by the courts.
    2) Thinks of Sex Tourism when someone brings up Thailand

    I don't know man. I'm not making any accusations, but if someone runs out of a Walmart with a ski mask on, and a revolver in his hand, I'm not going to assume the best.

    Roberto, what's fun about Thailand that you go so many times a year?

    Oh good. The troll abandons the topic completely and attempts character assassination.

    If I was to visit Thailand ever year, I'd go for the prostitutes. Don't tell my wife. (her phone number is published at sacramentobankruptcy.com)

    The funny part was I wasn't even thinking about prostitutes until you brought it up. I actually want to know what Roberto does when he visits. Character assassination? Why would I need to engage in that when you do a good job of it yourself. Have you read some of the stuff you post on Patrick.net?

    The press and more specifically the right wing press is a far bigger danger
    to the future of this country than the government is.

    Music to the ears of dictators across the world.

    iwog says

    No, because of the success of propaganda in Nazi Germany, which effectively
    brainwashed the majority of citizens in a technological 1st world nation into
    committing evil atrocity. Because of the success of propaganda in North Korea
    which has brainwashed their citizens into supporting their own starvation.
    Because propaganda works.


    Anyone who thinks the media in this country cannot become a serious threat is
    really REALLY ignorant of history and a fool.

    You conveniently leave out the fact that propoganda is controlled by the govt in those countries and as you suggested before as an example, the govt does not allow oppposing viewpoints. You may dislike Fox News-as do I- but they serve a very important purpose.

    If a politician can't survive in the world of domestic politics, then what use is he in the international arena-where folks are far more ruthless and propoganda is king?? Once Obama continues on this path and the next President may be much worse, then they shackle the press with threats, constant surveillance, then you will see propoganda. Nothing happens overnight-it takes time to build and we are heading that way-or at least the state sponsored terror apapratus is being set up.

    Remember Nazi Germany did not evolve overnight-they were badly defeated in World war I and suffered terrible terms in the treaty and people were willing to give up their freedoms for more security and national interest-. it didn't happen because a bunch of talking heads spewed their garbage non-stop.

    Reagan was a pinko cuckold who didn't have the guts to blow Frank Sinatra himself.

    There is a line a conservative man will not cross. That line starts at Frank Sinatra.
