Clinton lost twice & Democrats march around saying "May I have another."
At least they had a TOKEN BLACK.

I thought they were called job creators.

what are their losses attributed to?

HEY YOU says

He'll send others to fight & DIE.

do you support reduction of military expenditure and the reinstatement of the draft?

Pullback to $23, buying opportunity?

I'm not a big fan of trying to time the market. There are many players with access to information sooner than you, that have more experience than you, that control large accounts that sway the market whenever they buy and sell, and that participate in illegal insider trading daily and don't get prosecuted for it. Swimming with these sharks will most likely result in getting eaten.

That said, ARLP has performed worse over the past 10 years than the S&P 500 index. Sure, it had a lot of times where it was profitable to buy or short the stock, but for each dollar made by the winners, more than a dollar was lost by the losers. It's a zero-sum game (negative when costs are applied).

In contrast, the S&P 500 index has done well without the risk of being screwed over by another zero-sum game player with more experience, better access to trades, and insider information. Plus, such players spend all their time trading stocks and the rest of us have actual work to do.

Here's a graph of ARLP vs the S&P 500 over the past 10 years. No cherry-picking of data.

Remember, the best return on your investment comes from lottery tickets, if you know the winning numbers in advanced. The problem is that you don't.

I talked to a Vietnam vet on Sunday. He explained why his hands shook so badly he could barely hold his coffee cup. Agent Orange. He had wanted to go to college out of high school and become a veterinarian. Instead he got drafted and had to serve two years in hell that fucked him up for good.
Considering That Vietnam was a war that wasn't exactly legal and certainly not necessary, I'd give draft dodgers a break on that one.

It would have been 8 total defections from Hillary if some states didn't require their electors to vote as pledged:

In Minnesota, Sanders-supporting Democratic elector Muhammad Abdurrahman reportedly refused to cast a vote, so according to state law, he was replaced with an alternate who did vote for Clinton.
In Maine, Democratic elector David Bright voted for Bernie Sanders at first, but his vote was ruled out of order, and he switched it to Clinton during a revote.
In Colorado, Democratic elector Michael Baca attempted to cast his vote for John Kasich (as part of the failed scheme to convince Trump electors to back a moderate Republican), but he was dismissed and replaced by an alternate, who voted for Clinton.

Spotted eagle received an electoral vote-Hahahahahaha!!

I love the raw logic Dan! Well said!

CLEANSE THE TRUMP APOSTATES! CLEANSE THEM ALL!

Grab them by the pussy Trump says

LOL

Trump lost the popular vote by the widest margin in the history of the country, and, on top of that, his electoral college victory was not by a historic margin.

And Hillary still could not beat him. LOL.

Better than Bill Clinton's spotted dick!

I dispute Hillarys popular vote. Her and Obama made her popular vote illegitimate.
She cheated so badly they had to call off the recount in Detroit. Had it contined, the DNC was worried Trumps team would have spotted a pattern.

So you are saying? Just buy the SnP index and sit back? You make an argument against all individual stocks basically.

Quigley says

Those are some really swell drug dealers Obama is putting on the streets! Too bad they won't get any new supplies to sell when Trump puts up his YUUUUGE!!!! Wall!!!!!!

Freedom!

MAGA!

You got three likes for what may be the stupidest post I read all day.

There is no chance that Trumps wall results in any less drugs in this country.

You Right Wingnuts just don't understand markets, at all, do you?

The streets are full of criminals.
tRUMP VOTERS!

"So you are saying? Just buy the SnP index and sit back? You make an argument against all individual stocks basically."

Yep, most professional money managers don't beat the S&P over longer time periods. The "smart" money loses most of the time.

The wall bit was tongue-in-cheek. I thought you of all people would understand that 🙄

NAC is not an individual stock.

FP says

NAC is not an individual stock.

Who said it is?

can you prove that? or you just think that

A) The President is not elected by the National Popular Vote, never has been, and Trump is not the only person elected President to been so.
B) It isn't a victory by an historic margin, but it's also NOT an historically close victory, either.

Keep trying to spin! Let's remember the Democrats, the Hillary Campaign, the MSM and most pollsters were discussing how much Hillary's margin of victory in the Electoral College was going in the days and weeks prior to late evening, Tuesday November 8th.

Instead, Trump won several states he wasn't supposed to and contested several others where it was assumed he'd lose handily.

The Dem's platform was that Lawyers, Bankers, and Teachers are doing great, and if you aren't you're a Methhead Misogynist, so let's stay the course.

It's just an old promise Obama made to his dealer in the olden days.

The release of the drug thugs don't bother me, it's that Obama gave the Congressional Medal of Honor to fifty trannies who used women's bathrooms.

Would Californias vote totals be any different in a system like NPV rather than EC?

Grab them by the pussy Trump says

a) You could do a little research before stating your argument

Again, Trump is NOT the first person to lose the national popular vote and win the election. You might want to Fact Check the Neoliberal Rag, the Guardian.

It's circling the toilet since Rusbridger left. Now it's run by some dopey SJW and all they have is single cat lady click bait articles about how hard it is to be a non-profit/government employed 30-something female on 60k pounds/year.

The Optimates caused Caesar, both indirectly (their refusal of reform and looting of the treasury) and directly (by pretty much announcing he'd get a show trial with death as the penalty when he left his command returned to Rome.)

Seldom do you hear about Sulla, the right sonofabitch Optimate who was the Dictator a few decades before Caesar. Unlike Caesar, he didn't offer clemency to his enemies.

Ironman says

They can spin all they want. Trump will still be President.

I've been trying out Lyft and think it actually works better than Uber.

Are these structural losses or tax writeoffs?

Being the top strategist on patnet;
BOYCOTT ALL REPUBLICANS!
SHUTTER WINGNUT BUSINESSES!

so now that the electoral college armageddon didn't happen, i am awaiting with great interest what other fear the MSM will manufacture to round up the libby sheep.

i rode uber a few times i thought it was a very cheap alternative to taxi. i will never ride a fucking overpriced POS taxi again.

can't tell where the money went but the amount is shocking.

"Wouldn't happen if democrats didn't swell their base with illegal aliens. Forget securing the border, just implement voter ID laws on a federal level and the accusations will evaporate..."

That's laughable. There will always be another conspiracy that can rile up sheeple. If you institute voter IDs, then the new accusations will be that Acorn faked the IDs or faked the paperwork to get them IDs. If half of Republicans still believe Obama was born in Kenya, voter IDs won't stop this nonsense about voter fraud.

Why you silly unimaginative little shit.
Implement fingerprinting ID as already exists in your smartphone, or better yet, iris scanning.

people won't vote for a woman-isn't that one of the excuses?

Yes, I have to agree, if someone buys a car to do Uber then they are an asshole.

You can rent car from enterprise (at least around nyc) for less and use it to do Uber ....I learned that they have some kind of agreement yesterday

APOCALYPSEFUCK_is_ADORABLE says

ASSHOLES! who bought cars to drive for Uber are homeless and fighting with raccoons for the last french fry in the dumpster.

lol 😂😂
