The commodities market is not random, though, it is based on ... uh ... commodities that have a tangible and comprehensible relationship to the real world of agricultural and industrial production, unlike a bunch of ping-pong balls bouncing around inside a machine.

Further, depending on unexpected events in the market, commodities contracts can wind up worth far more than a 4:1 ratio.

Any chance you've got a good article on root canals?

This article just reinforces the thought that The Hildabeaste's actions were, at best, immoral and possibly illegal.

Since her actions occured a long time ago (in political time), I wonder why Mr. Fogel writes about it now? Not that I'm complaining. The Hildabeaste's actions should be on constant public display.

How about the astromical odds that a pudgy, thick-thighed, four-eyed lesbian twit could become the First Filcher? Multiply those odds by the absurdity that she would grow up to marry a treasonous, rapist, murderer who would end up being elected Der Schlickmeister twice!!! Talk about odds!!

The Hillary Bribe is very simple. (Dare we call it the "HildeBribe"?)

Say you own a brokerage which can sell long or short futures or puts or calls at will. You simply make two transactions at a time for each position.

Give all the winners to Hildebeast after the fact. Eat all the losers or put them into some phony account.

Someone should see if there was a balancing transaction for every winner Hillary hit. Probably was, unless the guy was really slick and went stealthy with the scam. Could very well be that for every receipt the beast had for winning some $50.00, lo and behold there would be a loser or two that tallies up to that exact amount. The "donor" of these illicit funds to the Junior Senator could retain the slips for all the losing transactions - the net result being a bribe paid to the beast.

This is a very good way to launder money. The only costs would be transaction costs, since both sides of the trade cancel each other. Since you own the brokerage, the transaction costs are a "sunk", fixed cost, or if variable can just be the icing on Hildebeast's cake.

This was clearly a bribe or payoff, and only the ignorance of the general public about matters economic along with the tacit complicity of the presstitutes shelter the beast.

The simple fact is that the HildeBeast could sacrifice an infant on the Capitol steps and the press would cover it up.

In this case its much simpler taking the Joe-On-The-Street approach. She's a crook - pure and simple! LOL.

Love the analogy and explanation though. Definitely keeper to resurrect when she runs.

Odds that the wife of a governor who ruled favorably on a trucking issue for Tyson's chicken, a woman who employed the services of the most sanctioned commodities broker in America, a guy named T-Bone who worked for Tyson and said he lost the trade records, was having the losing trades allocated to another account creating a felonius bribe: near 100%.
