For example?

If I took ran a factory at my house and dumped all the waste onto your yard and it seeped into your drinking water and caused you health problems, you'd probably be pretty pissed off at me. The fact that doing so saves me a lot of money and thus increases my profit margins doesn't really matter to you. Why should it be any different for coal power plants? They release pollution that enters the food supply and causes all sorts of health problems.

Hater says

I agree, pollution bad.

Do you agree it's bad enough to be criminalized and/or require polluters to pay fines or sin taxes to make up for the incredible amount of damage they do?

That's a real step to fighting climate change and all other environmental problems.

Wetbulb death is not important to people struggling to survive.

Wet bulb temp doesn't matter to dim bulbs... until they start dying.

Rew says

Ahhh ... but lots of Xians believe humans are all special un-meltable snowflakes, God's chosen creature, made in his image, and the Earth is a gift for Human use. This is justification for the disregard to the natural environment. It's "ours" to do with as we please. God will provide all to the faithful, and when the great revealing takes place, the faithful will be rewarded.

Nature has fallen. Nature is irremediably corrupted.
In fact every natural impulse is a sin in that tradition (and its cousins).

Gold - LOOK OUT BELOW!

wait, i thought this place had gone under because of Trump's bad business decisions?

new owner suffered the same fate? what a coincidence!

just any guy says

Gold - LOOK OUT BELOW!

Yep, that's what the big picture (price) seems to be saying $950+/-. My suggestion is let price confirm and close
above 1275-1300 depending on price reaction in that zone and buy on confirmation then you are likely to see some
profit opportunity in the 1650-1725 area. If anyone actually bought based on this post they are either in the red or
near break even. 3 choices sell at a very small profit or loss or if you feel lucky hold.

Despite Ryan's comments ...

Sessions : too close to investigate Trump's administration? Really? You don't say.

They love that "I've met with a ton of ambassadors" BS. LOL. McCain laughing his ass off. :P

What is it, 5 or 6 weeks in, and the GOP is asking for a special investigator ... lol!

Poor Trump. He was really riding high off that congressional address ... for about 11 hours. ;)

Trump is the greatest. Obama was the worst.

The new owner Ichan had union issues and didn't make an attempt to clean up the place or diversify. I think a boardwalk hotel with less gambling and a huge indoor poll would do well.

I regularly get room deals to stay at the Trop for the $39 - $59 range and it usually includes some sort of food or beverage credit too.

Please post those codes someplace (Tripadvisor, Slickdeals, FatWallet).

Then you don't know how to shop!

Bally's Atlantic City 1900 Pacific Ave. Atlantic City, NJ 08401

Guest Name: ZZYZZX

Room Type: Bally's Tower | Deluxe | 1 King | Non-Smoking

Resort/Other Fees: $57.42

Taxes: $15.24

And that's for 2 nights in early September when it's good beach weather. That even includes parking! Last year it was about the same money and I even got a corner king room with a huge tub.

Book early and book often. If you book directly with the hotel it's easy to cancel if you find a better deal or if you think the weather is going to stick 3 days out.

To be honest, that was 5 years ago and I haven't bothered to look for a room since I've had kids. Maybe they are finally coming around to dropping prices. Sure, I've had deals here and there where I get a $50 room at AC but in Vegas, it's available all the time with no effort at all at the drop of a hat.

Patrick's intent is not limitation of freedom, but his tool, government, is only about limiting freedom. His proposals would be more obviously freedom loving if they included words like:

abolish
annul
interpose
disband
burn down

Over the long term short rates also fluctuate, so there is most of the time positive correlation.

But I agree that many factors determine the long rates and if they start to go up it will be a long and messy process.

By the way, the forex market also affects the rates. So when China intervenes to defend its currency, long term US treasury rates go up. This did not exist 20 years ago.

Possibility four. Clownstick is sick with jealousy because he knows he will never be as great as great leader.

What should great leader do to Russian puppet? Nuke him? Hang him? Starve him? Make his listen to Trigglypuff all day? No, that last one is too cruel even by great leader's standards.

Great leader has bigger hands than Trump. Maybe great leader just slap the fuckface off the clownstick.

What if he's right?

Trump is almost always right. I bet this is true too. Just like Obama's slush fund.

Ripped off from other threads:

CBOEtrader says

What if he's right?

Exactly.

Would be good if he comes up with some evidence, but it's not beyond belief.

The dems say that the Russians modified our elections - Evidence Please
The CEO says that Obama wired taped him - Evidence Please

The only folks who make $$ of heresay are lawyers

Yep, and like Obama's birth certificate too.

Watergate anyone?

CBOEtrader says

Exactly.

Of course Trump is right that Obama tapped his phone lines. Obama had the NSA tap everyone's phone lines.

People need to realize that telephone conversations haven't been on analog dedicated circuits for a long time. There's no actual tapping of wires involved anymore. All your phone conversations, even if you are using an old rotary land line, are now IP telephony data. That means they are simply IP packets like any other Internet traffic. They are a bunch of ones and zeros routed through parts of the Internet owned and controlled by big telecom companies. It is utterly trivial to write every single IP packet that passes through the router to a database. The entire conversation can be reconstructed at any time, and you can ask for all conversations involving specific phone numbers or ranges of phone numbers.

If the president or anyone with sufficient access to the system wanted to, he could listen to any phone conversation at the drop of a hat. But don't worry, I'm sure our politicians and unaccountable government agents won't abuse this power, just like no one at the TSA would abuse pat-downs to get a sexual thrill. After all, if there is anything history has taught us it's that power prevents corruption, especially unaccountable power.

I'm not convinced that the birth certificate Obama FINALLY produced was real. If it were real why did it take so long?

NuttBoxer says

What your fiat currency-centric mind doesn't understand is gold and silver have been outpacing inflation(the dollar) for nearly a decade.

we had fiat 1980-2000, and teh glod wasn't that great a return.

real YOY % gain gold

This post is exactly why--Obama knew that nothing could convince folks like you so what was the point. Why acknowledge the nutjobs and give them a forum?

joeyjojojunior says

Why acknowledge the nutjobs and give them a forum?

Because it's what I really love to do!

Trump backing away from collaboration with Russia in Syria due to the recent scandals and three 'ongoing investigations '.

Shelf life of this crazy claim? I give it a week. Does the president have a confirmed named source? If there was wire tapping is it legally done because Trump was considered a potential enemy of the country?

Meanwhile ... Russsssia.

Zzyzzx When Trump produces his taxes, do I get to say the same thing?

I would think that gold is something that you would not want to own during a rising interest rate environment.

diesel vs. gold, 1980=100

Here is a good read about the interest rates:

FP says

Here is a good read about the interest rates:

I didn't have time to finish reading it. But he doesn't appear to state that the money supply causes inflation. He also implies that there was not really a Bernanke Put.

Is it a requirement for Trump to produce his taxes?

Anyone concerned about the upcoming debt ceiling deadline?

just any guy says

Is it a requirement for Trump to produce his taxes?

There should be. Transparency in all things government. Total informational awareness of what politicians are doing.

The palmer report....was that written by rosy palmer or harry palmer ?
