If I counted correctly, Prechter has written thirteen books and countless financial articles that have appeared in publications around the world.
In addition, Mr. Prechter has won numerous awards for market timing, including the United States Trading Championship, and in 1989 was awarded the “Guru of the Decade’’ title by Financial News Network (now CNBC). He has been named ``one of the premier timers in stock market history’’ by Timer Digest, ``the champion market forecaster’’ by Fortune magazine, ``the world leader in Elliott Wave interpretation’’ by The Securities Institute, and ``the nation’s foremost proponent of the Elliott Wave method of forecasting’’ by The New York Times.
Airborn, everybody, including you, deserves the benefit of the doubt. But sometimes when in doubt, it pays to keep your mouth shut and risk being thought a fool, instead of opening it and removing all doubt.
I took a look at your "about page". The Constitution does create a system of checks and balances as a part of its primary focus, which is limiting the powers of Federal government. It is not the checks and balances that are important. The reason for the existence of the Constitution and its purpose is to impose specific carefully spelled out limits on the powers of the Federal government. No one should ever forget the importance of the Declaration of Independence or its precedents. Our unalienable rights are gifts from God, not from government. The power of the American people does not come from government. It is precisely the other way around. Government's powers are grants from us to enable government to do specific tasks. This series of articles is focused on restraining an out of control government and forcing it to live within its Constitutional restraints. When all three branches of government, including the Supreme Court, are clearly misconstruing the Constitution and violating its terms, only We the people can put it back in its cage.
Airborn, let me welcome you to FreeRepublic and invite you to join our little band of merry men who intend to put the beast back in its box before it bankrupts us all. Make no mistake, there is nothing bizarre about Prechter or this series of articles.
