Rihanna Man Down Album: Loud Year: 2011 The guilt of killing her boyfriend in self-defense overwhelms Rihanna in the foreboding “Man Down.” Wailing sirens and searching steel drums open the single, setting an alert tone. His stil...

Capitalism has flaws

raylh — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 7:20:48 AM -0500

Pure capitalism has a fundamental failure-end, as does pure communism. With no government-induced trade regulation or tariffs, production obviously HAS to go to the cheapest labor force.......that is competition. How can American workers compete with .50/hour wages unless they accept .45/hour wages? My buddy from childhood had this crazy notion in high school back in the '70s. He was an electronics geek and back then he had this crazy notion that one day, practically every home would...

Europe vs the USA

I'm wondering how they really compare. Here are the facts I've managed to find so far: The Economy of the EU (the largest economic block in europe) is 25% larger than the USAs, but the EU's population is about 40% larger. The GDP per capita of the developed countries in Europe (including those outside the EU) is roughly equal (about 45k dollars) to the USA. Europe as a whole (i.e. with the former communist countries) has a significantly lower GDP per capita. The aver...

a good boy

a good boy He was a good boy. Roy was a good boy. He must have gone to Heaven. But I know nothing about Heaven. It is very far off. In my best Columbia jackets and happiest days, I never liked to think of it If I were to go there, it could do me no good, for I should not see Roy. Or if by chance I should see him standing up among the grand, white angels, he would not be the old dear Roy. I should grow so tired of sing¬ing 1 Should long and fret for one little talk, — for I never...

China and Europe vs. the US

singrdave — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 6:54:30 AM -0500

If by 2050 the Chinese and European economies are indeed larger than America’s, then this is no need for concern. The United States (US) has been the recipient of decades of economic supremacy, as it escaped World War II (WWII) with its economy largely intact. This was in opposition to Europe, whose land saw lots of fighting -- the economies of the nations of Europe suffered for it. Half of Europe was under the yoke of Communism. The destruction of Western Europe’s infrastructure took dec...

Las Vegas: Small Potatoes

Wall Street has always been a large scale Casino, dwarfing Las Vegas. Once these thugs lose sight of trading and lending on the quality of collateral assets, and legitimate good will, the wheel never stops.
