Comment contracts my arse (Score -1) 415

And? You have no bargaining power! Most people are sheep. For example in NJ you have to give 2 months deposit for a lease as opposed to NYC's 1 month. I guess I could move to NYC and get 1 month in a lease. Sure I can say strike that from the lease and their response will be go strike the sidewalk.
Landlords have a lobby group and change laws at their whim via political contributions and lobbying. Renters do not have such an option because they do not have a profit motive and the American mentality as evidenced by people driving SUVs is that everyone is basically out for themselves. We have no national health system and never will. If we do have one it will be a ridiculous implementation which only helps drug companies, drs, etc. as evidenced by Obrama care. Our medical care is one of the worst in the world as measured by band for the buck.
Yeah right stike that from the contract. Fat chance.

Comment Guys how do I post anonymously without log off ??? (Score -1) 240

I do not want to ruin my reputation here (cough ... cough) but how the hell do I post anonymously without logging off ?? I do not feel like reading help for an hour to figure this out. Is there a greasemonkey script or something? Is there an option somewhere in slashdot? Your help would be appreciated.
Yours sincerely,

Comment specialists have to be ....last resort (Score -1) 106

"specialists have to be the buyer and seller of last resort" . This is total BS. When the shite hits the fan e.g. crash of '87, a specialist does not buy anything that is not for his own self-interest. Would you go bankrupt to preserve the market? The answer is NO ! What are they going to do to you if you don't buy a stock whiose bid is going down to hell and there seems to be no bottom? You don't BUY ! Who cares about the common investor, all you care about is your mistress and your Mercedes. Worst come to worst is that you lose your seat on the exchange or whatever. You surely won't go to jail for NOT buying. It amazes me that people believe all these stupid stories about specialists. I think specialists usually get indicted every couple of years just like goldman sucks does (and whom always pays some sort of fine but no one ever gets indicted). QED

Boy interesting. Yep we export fuckUps all over the world. I think the CEO of SONY is another US fuckUp. When I was in my twenties I had a conversation with a friend of mind who said that a teenager could run any company. I think it's true with the following caveat i.e. that is the teenager has self-confidence and inherent (genetic?) talent. What is management after all? You ask people under you whom are supposedly competent (and not kissing your ass telling you what you want to hear to get promoted) about an issue. Get varying opinions and then decide and implement. You don't even really have to understand even the business you are managingt. You can always ask an underling for an executive summary. As an example look at our current President (I even voted for him shite). All he does is manage by committee and ask opinions and make one stupid decision after another. A 12 year old could run our country better than this idiot. Instead of making a definite decision a la Theodore Roosevelt, all he does is worry about getting reelected and accomplishes absolutely nothing. Truly incompetent. Not that Bush was any better.
