hey ya'll

"It's possible that your bosses have a SEP-IRA, which allows them to contribute more than the $2000 limit on normal IRAs. This is not a "pension plan" but it is a retirement savings plan that defers taxable income."

My main question here is, aren't self-employed people who take advantage of SEP's etc., obligated by law to offer these to employees within certain guidelines. Actually, like piggy-backing on his health-care plan, which I pay for but it's much cheaper than I could get, and finally loseing it and bringing up sexual harrassment over his disgusting manager chief, I was acting in my own interest but the benifits have spilled over to others. My fellow peons have no guts at all. Or maybe no imagination. They kiss ass and talk about him behind his back. It's like a 15-20 person disfunctional family. Homophobia, racism, sexism are rampant. And, as I've said, comparitively speaking, it's a good place to work. Pretty sad.

Mark

Yeah, yeah, First World professionals who live in glass organic food shops shouldn't throw Mocha Latte cups.

"They treat Marx as if he were merely a better version of Ricardo, but they are useful nonetheless."

Hey Michael-is this the same Ricardo(David) I saw today when I stumbled onto The Dead Economists Web page. Also Hayck. What's the deal? I got the impression this was sort of a Libertarian site, Ayn Rand, H.L. Mencken covered too. Do you just interpret the same guys differently? Come to very different conclusions from shared well of ideas?

"The collapse which began in the USSR ten years ago was (as I for one have been arguing for some years) only the first stage of a general historical process. The single most salutary aspect of this avalanche of crisis is the fate of the middle classes: the professional, managerial, entrepreneurial and technical-scientific strata now being expropriated and pauperised in every part of the world where the crisis has struck. The proletarianisation of people who only just emerged from those social origins is deeply significant and is bound to lead to not only the profound radicalisation of the working class but to the reinvigoration of socialist doctrines and revolutionary organisations"

This I could see happening, in other countries. Becoming the much needed enemies of Fortress America. Maybe that's really why Japan is upset at the US blaming the global meltdown on Japanese failures. Yes, both dogs may have been mortally wounded, the Russian dog just died first. It's hard to believe Capitalism couldn't see this coming. One of those too stupid to be truisms. Could this possibly be a disiplinary action? BYE BYE, AMERICAN PIE.

" One more thing: from Russia to Bangladesh to Indonesia, anthropogenic climate change is greatly intensifying the scale of the crisis."

I have been truly amazed at how consistently these "natural" disastors have been kept out of mainstream analysis of the current situation. What's the motivation. Are they blind or stupid. Oh never mind, I forgot, their stark raving mad.

How many cats are you allowed to take to a homeless shelter?
