		<description>Hi people,

I recently registered to this forum www.noquarterusa.net and hope that you can
help me with the forex market - I am looking for an introduction
for beginners. I have already some knowledge about shares. (Hope this is the fitting category.)

Help is so much appreciated. Most important question: can a noob make money on the forex?

Thanks,
Jim</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Rich&lt;/em&gt; is just a word, isn&#039;t it?  In 2007, for the U.S. as a whole, the median household income for a family of 4 was $48,451.  State by state, the highest median income was in Maryland, at $65,144 for a family of 4; the lowest figure, $34,473, was for Mississippi.

		<description>Yeah, I typed a little too quickly.  I trust McCain.  I trust Palin.  There is just a couple issues that still have the ick factor for me.  First, I don&#039;t think we should be heading more towards nuclear power.  I prefer wind and solar.  I really believe that we should develop energies that are natural or renewable with NO toxic leftover byproducts.  

Also, I still have an issue with any federal judges he selects.  Specifically because I believe that the Constition should be somewhat fluid.  I believe in keeping a close interpretation; but there are times when you have to be realistic and fair.  So, I prefer more moderate Justices.  I just don&#039;t know how McCain will select them.  On one hand he is moderate; on the other, he has to appease a conservative base; but on the 3rd hand (yeah, I&#039;m really an octopus-lol), his behavior during this election shows me that he will do just about anything to NOT further divide this country.  

Anyway, I guess my point is I&#039;m happy to vote for McCain.  But if it had been Hillary running, I would have voted for her.</description>

		<description>This poll suggests Obama is losing. Here&#039;s how:

If we assume in this poll that Republicans would vote for McCain and Democrats for Obama, then according to the skew they are presenting, the percent saying they will vote for McCain should only be 70% of the total saying they will vote for Obama. However, the total saying they will vote for McCain is 75% of the total saying they will vote for Obama. This suggests that very large numbers of Democrats are voting for McCain compared to very small numbers of Republicans voting for Obama. And if you unweight the numbers to even out Democrats and Republicans, then (cancelling out the republicans voting for obama with an equal number of the democrats voting for mccain -- which would still leave some democrats voting for McCain based on my earlier analysis of the percentages) you end up with a lead for McCain. So essentially, this poll that supposedly shows a 13-point lead for Obama actually shows a lead for McCain when the artificial skew is removed.</description>

		<description>Soros.

You&#039;re all missing the key, because you&#039;re not following the money.

Several excellent observations here (Ann in Ca for one, I think) about the mask finally coming off the MSM...because they&#039;ve gotten just too damn blatant.

Well, it&#039;s the same with the blind &#039;liberal&#039; dogma that government is &#039;benign&#039;.

No, it&#039;s NOT benign...it is INHERENTLY open to corruption and use.

Put the two together....huge-gov and massive MSM propaganda-machine; both FOR HIRE....and what do you have?

An opportunity for a group of really filthy rich and connected sociopaths to wrap up control of EVERYTHING.

What is their plan, their desire, their endgame?

All you have to do is list the PC-crap most hyped by their propaganda-arm over the past 30-40 years...

- UN is good

- land/water control

- concentration of power in govs and many layers above citizens

- individualism &#039;bad&#039;

- kneejerk groupthink (enormous pressure to follow every PC-fad like a cause-junkie)

- nationalization of private property

(who now holds the mortgages on 6 trillion of US homes?)

- nationalization of all banks

- total disarmament of all citizens.

- control of all information flows

- total surveillance society

Think analytically and you can add a few more yourselves.

The sum total, their endgame, is this:

A worldwide totalitarian welfare/police state
 
90% serfs, 9% nasty bureaucrats, 1% elite

I&#039;m a libertarian, but I&#039;m really pissed at friends who&#039;re insisting on voting 3rd party again this round.

NOT a good plan...not this time.

Anyway, Soros, Sandler, Buffet, Gates, Auchi, et al...is what this is all about.  Obama&#039;s nothing but a front-man for that gang.

McCains a piss-poor candidate...grade-F on guns, immigration, etc...

But Obama&#039;s a TERRIBLE candidate; the forces he represents...the SCOTUS justices he&#039;ll appoint.  The bills that his steamroller 1-party gov will slam into place week after week.

Frickin&#039; nightmare is what we&#039;re talking about here.

Anyone voting 3rd party in the prez-race, or still &#039;undecided&#039;, is out of their mind.

ps:  go PUMA&#039;s !

UFB impressive movement and people in it.  Takes BALLS to stick up for principles, recognize past zombieness, publicly -acknowledge- having been duped...man, the sheer -courage- brings tears to my eyes; let alone the high-test action instead of just moaning about things.

Impressive as hell.</description>
