Whats the difference in thise taxes? Whats to stop those added costs from being passed to consumers?

Why would it be illegal? Hertz was in bankruptcy because it couldnt pay its debts, a capital injection might have raised enough cash to pay off its debts and exit the bankruptcy proceedings. They disclosed the low likelyhood of such a thing

They dont want it. But the incentive structure that determines if they get elected or not is set up in a way that makes supporting wealth creation a disadvantage

Thats called an ad. Mozilla is receiving money to show me something, thats what ad agencies do.

Except they are not incentivised to expend more and more energy. The amount of energy expended is a direct correlation to how important bitcoin is. You wouldn't criticize a government for spending millions keeping ita gold reserves saf

I hardly think that requiring a test and affirmation of responsibility before allowing trading of options to be "encouraging" people to use them. If the government were to impose such restrictions on something like voting, they wo

Those are one and the same. He was 700k in debt, and needed to transfer 170k immediately or his account would be liquidated to make do on that debt. That isn't a lie, it is quite literally what a margin call is.

by djbebs 6y ago
Again, it was not a lie, that is how margin calls are supposed to work. If you don't want it to work that way, you have a simple solution, dont use margin to trade complex financial products. Look, i get where you're coming from,

Nothing was stolen. He sold a put, and that put was exercised. He didn't have the cash to pay for it, so he was margin called and his portfolio was liquidated accordingly. Until the liquidation happened, he still owed the cash. This is

It wasnt a lie though. He WAS margin called, hence why the second leg of his options trade activated. At the time the email was sent (and until the next day) he did owe that much money. These are complex financial products, and he should ha

He comitted suicide less than 24 hours after the cash was out of his account. Not giving a email reply within 24 hours is not what i would call negligence.

Yeah their entire study is "we looked at a list of companies who comitted fraud, and can see that the percentage of companies in that list that committed fraud is higher than that of the average company" Nothing was discovered her

Given that the UK is quite literally a theocracy i wouldnt say there is much of a diference there...

Its not unique to the US. Just a few years ago a high profile case happened in portugal where a man had a dispute with his parents and was forcibly committed for 2 years without the doctor his parents went to ever seeing him.

It being a dying company doesnt mean it wasnt undervalued. Gamestop was being sold below its Net Current Asset Value, that is, if you took all of its cash in the bank and used it to pay off all of its debts, you would have more cash in hand

Thats not true at all. Its perfectly possible and legal to short beyond 100%

And now you see the necessity of violence to advance political goals.

Whats wrong with using that word even if black people are around? If listening to a word causes you so much trouble, thats your problem as the listener, and its up to you to deal with it.

There is no evidence that is true, and short interest is still above 130% so it sounds like a lie to discourage additional buying of gme

Htz had declared bankruptcy at the time they tried. Gamestop hasn't and that is a very big diference.

by djbebs 6y ago
It really doesn't unless you mean that it makes it harder for GME to aquire equity funding.

by djbebs 6y ago
Gme is approaching bankruptcy because they have an unprofitable business, not because of the price of the stock

Saving is not bad because "it slows the economy". Savings is bad in the views of governments and central banks because it removes their power over money. There is no meaningful practical diference between the fed printing money, a

Doubtful. Insurances dont run at a loss, every penny that goes into them they take a cut as profits. If the treatment is expensive, great! More demand for their product, and even if their cut is the same, their profit and revenue will be gr
