How Many Of You Are "One Percenters"

And then all that crap about the "Founding Fathers", Christ who gives a shit, they are DEAD. And don't forget those Founding Fathers that most Americans are so proud of, most of them were just a bunch of criminals fleeing justice in Europe. Originally Posted by waverunner234

Perhaps you need to recall how the American Revolution affected France, and then consider the impact of the French Revolution on subsequent European - and world - history.

What matters to me is the present and the future.
And to keep myself educated, what I have to do every weekend is study the world's currency charts, the fundamental analysis of the world economy as a whole and some countries in particular. The money flow, the economical and political influence on that money flow. The possibilities of Government and sometimes even corporate or private interventions. Technical, fundamental and sentimental analysis of everything related, and correlation / inverted correlation between everything that I come across. And all that just to be prepared for next weeks challenges.

As far as history goes, although I think it is interesting, I really don't have the time to study it in depth.

So just go ahead and keep your head buried in the sand while I protect my future.

Actually it doesn't, but it'll suffice in lieu of your addressing these issues:

1) You're the one that made the pompous statement about the Founding Fathers. Why was it important for you to do that?

2) Plus, you suggested that Dutchmen were/are somehow morally superior to Americans because of events that occurred over 200 years ago, despite historical facts showing the Dutch were just as culpable as any English settlers. Why was it important for you to do that?

I thought this hooker board was supposed to warrant competitiveness amongst the hookers... Now we've got men trying to size each other up. What do you guys really expect to garner? Respect? Wrong forum... Just sayin'.
