I don't quite get why folks are complaining.  Apple never said ANYTHING about an iphone5, the media did.  Apple will do what they always do -- build phones that are solid, practical and maximize battery life without sacrificing too much performance.  Face it, phone battery technology has not caught up with TRUE 4G tech...more

Jubak -you have got to be kidding me man.  Every American that fills up their gas tank cringes as it is.  You are a looney toon.  The best thing the Government can do is to do NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!  They have done far enough already and have put us in this situation we are in. Another stimulus will not work, raising tax...more

Anthony - I have to respectfully disagree with your point of view on this one.  We have went the stimulus route on previous occasions and all it did was prolong the inevitable, which is a double dip recession.  You cannot spend your way out of this mess, it will do nothing but harm the value of the U.S. Dollar, lowe...more

20% was once required in the U.S.  Once we got away from this and had all these sidearm loans being offered to U.S. consumers, many folks who could not truly afford a house still received loans.  This practice led to gross inflation of house prices.  As such, if we went back to requiring 20% down, the housing market wi...more

republicans drank the  big corporate Kool-Aid, and we're paying for it.  no regulation so bankers could be crooks.  nixon going to china, on and on and on.  the thieves raped and pillaged and the giants took away our jobs.  our crybaby senate and congress need to be kicked out.  it's time to take back the government.  ...more

The term for it is actually a double dip recession.  The so called QE2 stimulus ended in June.  There was a decent rally and as soon as there was a good reason for a sell-off, it happened.  There is no secret here.  The lesson that needs to be learned is that we need to let the market bleed out and recover on it's own....more

This article said it.. S&P stated originally back in April that they would reduce the rating if we did not find cuts in the amount of $4 trillion over the next 10 years.  Guess what.. the dummies in Washington didn't even bother to bat an eye until the last minute and still came up with a bad deal that thumbed their no...more

The S&P down graded our rating and all Mr Boehner and the TEA said, " we got 98% of what we wanted, and we are so glad". Really???  The Tea Party said they got 98% of what they wanted, yet no single member of Congress that ran on the Tea Party ideologues even voted in favor of this laughable bill.  Please get your fact...more

No single party is to blame.  It is all of the politicians in Washington that have their heads so far up their arses that they can see what they ate for dinner last night.  I will not be voting for a single incumbent in the 2012 election, period.  I am sick of these bozos.  Time to vote them out and send a clear messag...more
