So, you are a Commie day trader, living in the Bejing suburbs. Yada yada yada. You sound like a gambler. 50% ROI in two weeks sounds like the company was either way undervalued 2 weeks ago, or way overvalued now. No fundamentals would change that quickly. You are a glorified casino blackjack player. Day trading is a way to make a living. Just remember to monitor your stocks while you are posting all throughout the working hours. Thanks. You sound jealous.
Bush in 2004, baby. It's gonna be beautiful. We're going to crush you fools.
To: Texas_Dawg
You crack me up. I get it. Democratic Underground plant. You are imitating the most obnoxious Bushbot possible, in order to make the President look bad.
I am still supporting the President as of now in 2004 despite you, you DU troll. It is so brilliant on your part. Be the world's worst jerk, and people will associate snottiness with the President. Your gig is up.
Go back, ye troll!
To: Texas_Dawg
We're going to crush you fools We? LOL.
Delusions of grandeur.

No seriously. He is part of the team. The White House consults him constantly.

So in effect you don't produce anything of value yourself, you make money from the equities you trade.
I admire your ability to make money without actually producing anything but it detracts from your argument of free-trade. You have a strong personal bias because you benefit directly from free-trade.
Since you trade equities you should know where capital is flowing, is investment in the US up or down compared to foreign investment?

You seen the stock market lately? You seen Europe's markets (or everyone else's for that matter) lately?

Neo-Conservatives are not real Libertarians to be fair, they are indeed pro big business at any cost, but neo-conservatives are also supportive of massive amounts of govrenment spending and they are supportive of FED led bailouts such as LTCM 5 years ago, things that real Libertarians would never be for.

"We"? Sorry, too many things do not add up, you say you only make $40K a year, tide $4k of it every year, yet live right next to Times Square in Manhattan. First off, for being 25 years old and working in finance and supposedly having a degree, $40K even in cheaper cities such as St Louis and Louisville is low pay, in Manhattan, its poverty level. You also make dozens of posts every day during working hours, somthing most employers would not tolerate, yet talk about those "Muricans" like they are beneath you even though you are clearly using company time and resources to make your dozens of FR posts every day.

You aren't a merchant . A merchant actually owns a store, works, produces goods and services. You gamble. You don't invest. A long term investor wouldn't be bragging so heavily about 1 stock going up over a 2 week period. You could be trading ding dongs, or zinc tablets for all you care. You aren't investing. You are betting that you will hit black jack.
Day trader basically. Just like I said.

I've been saying this guy was a DU plant for a while. I haven't seen anything to counter that view. Eventually, the admins will figure it out.
However, he does serve a very useful function. His obnoxious attitude does spur others to post responses, which bumps up these sorts of articles to the top of the list. More posts from Texas_DUwg, more attention to the issues of outsourcing. He does make republicans look uncaring though... and that is harmful.
To: StolarStorm
What is very ironic, is FR has far more posts on dealing with oursourcing and unfair trade than DU does, and its far more critical than DU is. So much for the false belief that FReepers are Bush-bots, and are all well off. My guess is DU is mostly upper middle class, while FR has a far more diverse economic cross section.

Well Pat B. was right about immigration in 2000 when he ran for election. The "Donald" call him a NAZI for his stance on immigration. If only the immigration policy from Pat Buchanan was inforced, 9-11 may not have happen.
About jobs, he is right again. One way to compete with China's labor policies is to put all of our prison population to work making products for Wal-Mart for $1.00 a day per person.
By the way who or what was that cartoon character next to Pat?

To: JNB
I don't know if one's class status is all that relevant. I'm doing pretty well, and I'm against outsourcing and temp visa programs. I also know a guy with 900 million bucks that is also very concerned about the job situation. Most intelligent people know that an America without a strong middle class is an America in deep trouble.
To: Texas_Dawg
He has?? He was saying the Japanese were going to destroy us economically over a decade ago. He certainly was right when he said it. Had the Japanese not floated their currency and become "fair" capitalists, who knows what would have happened. As long as the Chinese currency does not float, then they will be in a position to take advantage - to capitalize - on their advantage.

The New World Free Trade Order is the self-blinding committed ideology that replaces truth. Yes I agree.

We have to call him out as a plant though.
I used to just think he was stupid. Those who won't bend, break. I have positions on issues, but I am able to see the other side on them. There are arguments pro free trade that do make sense to me, for example.
However, this clown insults, never budges, and insults anybody who has any doubts about the president. What is the result of his actions? It drives people away from the President. He isn't too stupid to not know this. He is deliberately associating his obnoxiousness with the president. He is a DU plant. I too hope admin figures this out. It reminds me of republicans who would heckle democrats by pretending to be Marxists who agree with them, or democrats pretending to be David Duke supporters who also supported Bush I.
It is political theater. Dawg is being deliberately a jerk in order to make the president look worse. I suggest that we all call out this DU troll every time he tries to paint republicans as major league clymers with his characature of a greedy uncompassionate republican.
Seriously, he is the liberal stereotype of a republican jerk. That is why I know he is a liberal DU plant.

Very true and a excellent point. From what I have seen, and of course, this is not a absolute because there are allways plenty of exceptions "old" or "Established" money seems to have a more balanced perspective on the economy and society, and they often have a sense of responsibility, but the "new" money, and growing up near Silicon Valley I saw many of these types, only care about the bottom line, and these types are who makes up the bulk of both neo-conservatives abd self styled "new Democrats", representing two suides of the same coin.
