First off, I don't view my bank accounts as being "investments"... But as to my actual investments, I stopped putting money into stocks, securities, etc about 15 years ago, and I'll just say that they dwarf your 3.85% bond rate over the long haul, and that they've more than doubled over the past 3 years or so. That said, it's a drop in the bucket compared to the amount my company recycles directly back into the US economy as a result of normal everyday business operations. |

wrote: "whoyakidding" wrote in message I just remembered a story from another friend from a few months ago. His mom needing to go into nursing home. (she's still resisting last I heard) Hospital person advises she take some course which is designed to teach her how to answer some upcoming interview. At same time she will need to fake (friend's description) illness to prompt hospital stay. All part of some scheme to get her into a home at no cost. Alternatives are between $3500 and $6000 a month IIRC. Do you know what's going on there? First, if she is capable of resisting or being schooled, she probably needs assisted living as opposed to a nursing home. Nursing homes are for people with tubes hanging out of them. Assisted living is for the goofy or incontinent. The lower number you quoted would cover that in most states. That sounds about right. Apparently she's much worse health AND mobility wise than she thinks and the family's about worn out keeping her in her own home. Last problem was another broken bone from a fall. Medicare requires a min 3day hospital stay before they cover nursing homes. My guess is that they want to give her an illness with no definitive test, get medicare to roll her to a nursing home and eventually have her turfed into an assisted living situation under medicaid or as a ward of the state. That sounds about right as well. Family will probably sell the home and keep the money but it's a very modest place. I'm amazed that the industry is counseling people to do such things although I guess I shouldn't be. The system has devolved to every man for himself instead of focusing on lowest cost per head. |

I know one case currently where the typical idiot conservative worth many millions is slowly being drained...bill after bill...and I project he and his family will be penniless when he dies.

By the sound of it it not only works but it's routine for officials to counsel how to do it. The details probably aren't as notable as the trend: that care is getting so expensive that fewer and fewer will even try to pay for it. In the case I mentioned there's no way the son can come up with the money. In a better world the mom's home and pension would cover the bill. As it is her care so far has probably cost many times what she paid in and if she lingers for a few more years the new bills will surely dwarf the ones so far. If I remember right eight years ago the average daily cost of hospitalization was $2500 compared to about a third as much in Canada. Newer info here http://www.californiahealthline.org/...sis-finds.aspx. 4-6 thousand per day in some areas! Now think of costs doubling again in another 10 years at the same time that purchasing power is declining and most people's main asset (home) is losing value. It's a ****ing train wreck but the most astonishing part is how many windbag aresholes pretend that nothing's wrong. As if it couldn't get any more Kafkaesque apparently the rightards intend to back Romney's drive AGAINST the exact same reforms he authored and championed! It would be enlightening to hear from some former Soviets about their perceptions during the period their empire was winding down. I wonder if it was like here where half the electorate is humming and has their fingers plugging their ears. |

Since personal acquisition is the main goal of those on the right, why would they not want as much as they can get any way they can get it? So it doesn't matter if rightwingers need handouts or not they want them anyway. Look at our huge and very profitable corporations. They still want all the freebies they can get, don't they? So need is irrelevant to wanting handouts. People at the top and businesses take handouts every chance they get and that makes them worse because they don't need them. Hawke |

You haven't even noticed that over the last two decades the richest 1% has seen tremendous gains in wealth while the average American has lost 40% of theirs. So, the fact is, much of the country's wealth has been redistributed from the middle and lower classes to the upper class. And you are too unaware and ignorant to know that. But maybe you do and are one of those boneheads that think a large disparity in wealth is good for a country's economy. Either way it shows you to be a fool. Hawke |

Fortunately, most people can see the inherent wrong in allowing one person to control that much of a nation's wealth. Only a moron can't see anything wrong with it. Hawke |

No, not even close. I'm far smarter than you. Even your allies here recognize that. What's not close is how much higher my level of knowledge is than yours is. And you're dreaming if you think you're smarter than me. But what does that matter when I know so much more than you do? You're like a kid compared to me. You don't know squat and have to Google everything. I've got it all in my head. You haven't even noticed that over the last two decades the richest 1% has seen tremendous gains in wealth while the average American has lost 40% of theirs. Irrelevant - it doesn't mean that any part of the "money supply" is being withdrawn from circulation. I'm not interested in the money supply. That's the Federal Reserve's problem, and is irrelevant in relation to the negative effect of having so much money held by so few individuals. While it may have no effect one way or the other on the money supply it sure has many other odious effects. But you wouldn't know anything about them except whether the money supply was changed by it. You wouldn't know about what it is doing to the lives of actual human beings. Because you don't care about them. All you care about is numbers. But that's okay because I can tell that no one cares if you're alive or dead either. Talk about stupid - you don't even know what the money supply is. I do, but you don't. You're stupid. You like being stupid - being stupid is the only thing at which you work. **** you! I knew what the money supply was when you were still in grade school. You're a stupid little punk that is overly impressed with yourself. Unfortunately for you no one else is. Your arguments and rational are silly and weak. But that is what you get from a wuss like you. Hawke |

You're so damn stupid that you always miss the salient point anyway unless someone spells it out for you like for a retard. Right now you can take six members of the Walmart family and their wealth is equal to the wealth of the bottom 150 million Americans. You want to figure out exactly how many dollars that means they are in control of? You would. But that's not the point. The point is that the U.S. now ranks in the top five or six countries in the world where income and wealth disparity is the worst. Get that? The WORST! So much money is held by so few people that we are just like a banana republic when it comes to how our country's economic pie is cut up. Now, to someone like you that means nothing. But to normal humans that is something to be outraged at to the point where it's about time for a revolution like you see in Syria. Unknown to economists, when wealth becomes too unfair and too unequal the people rise up in revolution and burn things down. Why not? They own nothing and everything they destroy belongs to the rich. We are at that point now. So while it doesn't matter to an economist who owns how much of a country's wealth it sure matters to the population that has nothing. Hawke |

Even as a fraction of GDP, it was only 1/65th, but that ratio is an absurdity, because net worth is a stock, while GDP is a flow. I know you don't know the difference, but it's relevant. The bit of folklore - and that's clearly all it is - that says Rockefeller "owned" one of every eight dollars in the country, or about 12.5%, is based on a comparison of his net worth to something - something the myth-believers never specify. No matter what the other value is, it's bunk - they couldn't be talking about literal money, i.e. gold and greenbacks, because they would have no way of knowing what share of Rockefeller's fortune was tied up in cash and other money equivalents. No, the ****witted myth-eaters are looking at his total net worth and comparing it to some other stock value, and there is *NO WAY* it could be 1/8th of all wealth in the country, if GDP at that time was $90-$100 billion per year. The claim is debunked. It's the kind of ****wittery believed only by credulous do-nothing leftists like you. |
