Which is quite the coincidence, because many of them love this bill.

Most insurance pools operate at non-profit levels already and simply make money by investing the risk pool and betting against themselves in high risk pools. Some backer beat the system by buying up treasuries pushing for a bailout and having the corporate front cry poor mouth when they start taking a bath, thereby protecting their own assets while backing their own bailout. Treasuries or not, they'd still be responsible for backing the bad bet, but that way they can pressure congress to use the credit they've extended to protect a "too big to fail" while sticking the bill to the taxpayer. That's what AIG backers did.

We have angered the economy with our frivolous spending. We must save our money, and wear bedsheets.
This seems to be Peter Schiffs view. Which is ridiculous because how can you get the economy going again when there is no money circulating to stimulate it?
Why do you think interest rates go up when the economy is doing well? It happens because it is an incentive to save and slows the growth of the economy as fewer people spend and more save due to higher return.

So that's foolish.

What the hell are you on about it can't function properly?
The Fed or the Bank of England just set the base rate. The banks have to borrow money off them at this rate. If it costs more you tend to find it gets used less, interest rats are the cost of money. So if that cost is increased people use money less and so the economy slows, seeing as it uses money as the medium of exchange.
So your point about the market not functioning is invalid, unless you want to put a ban on lending there will be an interest rate, how it is set is actually determined by market conditions, seeing as changes in the market cause changes in interest rates.

Listen, dude....
When the FED has interest rates at 0% and foreign banks have interest rates, at say, 7% Then people borrow money here, for next to nothing, and then save it overseas for 7% profit. This floods the foreign markets with Dollars, dollars that they don't sit on but that they turn around and invest putting more dollars very visibly out on the world market. This makes money for bank/investment houses that can lend themselves the money to put in over seas banks, while sucking wealth from everyone else through inflation. In the past our dollar was a embodiment of our ability to consume, and so this plan worked because those foreign banks would sit on the money. But that confidence no longer exists and most banks are trying to push for a new reserve currency.

An unruly 10-year-old girl has been given a Taser stun gun jolt after she kicked an Arkansas policeman in the groin.

Police were called to a home in Ozark, near Little Rock, over a domestic disturbance, according to a report by Officer Dustin Bradshaw.

When he arrived, the girl was curled up on the floor and screaming, he wrote.

The youngster was also kicking and resisting every time her mother tried to get her in the shower before bed, the report continued.

TAMPA - The priest was lost in the Channel District and needed directions to Interstate 275, so he tapped a U.S. Marines reservist on the arm and, in a thick Greek accent, asked for help.

That's how police say the incident began.

But Lance Cpl. Jasen Bruce said the man, who was wearing a robe, sandals and a long beard, propositioned him in English and grabbed his genitals.

Dear /pol/ I have a serious question.
What moral code do you believe we as a society should follow?

I ask because (admittedly IMO) laws and morals are inseperable, so the moral code of a society is what dictates its laws. Now as every society needs some sort of rules (unless you want true anarchy) what rules should these be?
I'm just curious, noone seems happy with the current state of law and society in general, so I ask, if we started from scratch, what would you implement?
Also would you prefer a legal system based on precedent (i.e. Britsh) or based on a constitution (i.e. America)?

If I kill Joe the black man because he's black, I'm a threat to all black people.

If I kill Joe the black man because he's Joe, I was only a threat to Joe--I'm killing more discriminately.

The first implies someone more fucked up that needs to be locked up a bit longer. The second implies a personal dispute. If this were the logic employed I could see it making more sense. That said, even if this logic were the case, the way they're applied and developed [slowly protecting additional groups over time] is pretty fucked up. Unless there is conclusive evidence based on the expression of the accused [if they shout 'go home, nigger' or 'fucken' tranny!'] they shouldn't fly.

Surely I'm not the only one who admires the DPRK and their brilliant leader, Kim Jong-Il?
In a world where practically every country has accepted neo-liberalism and the dominance of western corporations over their economies, North Korea stands out as an island of freedom and democracy; an island of anti-imperialist resistance.

Trolls will inevitably respond with a bunch of hogwash about a lack of 'human rights'.
Fuck them. I know the DPRK probably treats dissidents harshly, but considering that the alternative is letting McDonalds and Nike and all those other corporations come in, steal the resources and turn the country into another fugly advertisement-ridden brothel, I think the way they treat the issue is more than justified.

Because North Korea can't sustain itself with protectionism, it's population used to subsist on agriculture from the south. And they aren't Maoist. They're more or less in the same political position as Cuba, except Cuba is far better off materially, whereas NK basically has to beg and rub up to other states to survive. Don't think that liberalization will help them. The moment NK collapses is the moment the population is basically consigned to actual slave labor, as opposed to slave labor that can keep you subsisting long enough for your economy to join another protectionist bloc.

It really shows the mentality of socialists toward human life.

Why is it that America demonized Al Jazeera? I frequent their English website and usually find very little bias besides a slight tinge of anti-Israel sentiment.

Can anyone on /pol/ refresh my memory as to why the United States pushed the idea that Al Jazeera was a terrorist-friendly news network? Can someone possibly show me some evidence of their blatant anti-american propaganda, or their blatant terrorist propaganda? It seems that Al Jazeera is regarded and thought parallel to terrorism where I live and with anyone I talk to.

I used to read AJ english frequently just to see a different perspective, the content mostly parroted European news agencies but it was written a little dumber. Not a big deal, I imagine english is probably the b team over there anyway. Then I read a report that the english AJ is white washed for western audiences. I wasn't sure since news agencies are always writing stories against each other so I dug a little deeper. Remember when Israel traded several living combatants for some dead soldiers? One of those terrorist guys was captured while riflebutting a fucking toddler to death. When he got out, AJ arabic held a fucking birthday party for him. There was a band and a cake, and he cut it with a scimitar. Call me a Jew propagandist or whatever, but these guys have a level of bias which borders on complete fucking insanity /rant
