Re: Financial topics

We all know why everyone uses operating earnings, it's because they get the earnings most in line with what they want to hear. Me? I'd rather hear the truth.

Re: Financial topics

For my part of the debate? I think Paul Volker made as many mistakes as anyone. Volker strangled the economy for 7 years and maybe destroyed much of my early career out of college. I guess I should have gone to NY and joined a Wall Street firm because I had the eye for it, but I fooled around with ...

Re: Financial topics

At what point do we come to the conclussion that Hank Paulson, who was one of the originators of our current problems, is an embezzler? This man, IMO, has almost single handedly ruined the U.S. economy and even though he may be doing so unintentionally, it certainly appears that he's just shoveling ...
