it is called front running.

No, it's called blackboxes, whose algorithms cannot handle trade entry error or unexpected events, which weren't modeled into their historic data sets.

It's called a lot of motherfuckers should be forced to get real jobs, producing real goods and services, rather than shortcircuiting currency.

No one is short-circuiting anything. As for those motherfuckers getting real jobs, I don't think you have to worry about that, because thanks to them those real jobs are created.

Yeah right.

The money handlers create jobs.

Uh huh.

Keep telling yourself that.

What sort of sicko logic states that the source of jobs is the manipulation of currency?

Honestly, even half a second reflection denies that.

Were you living in a cave for the last couple years, better yet, the last century?

I don't think you understand how currency works. The government manipulates currency; the markets most efficiently distribute capital according to demand and need.

The blip crash did not happen because of currency manipulation, it was an equity event. As for Greece, that's the government (both Greek and European) and not the markets.

Lol... keep it up, you're amusing.

Your version of intellectualism is seeing how many balls of feces you can juggle at the same time.

'Demand and need'... that's rich. Is that the new politically correct version of supply and demand?

And I love this new ideology that Greek's problem is due to its government's paying its employees too much. Do you eat anything that's placed before your snout?

Regretfully shit happens, even more regretfully it usually happens to good people. Real life is unfair and unjust, but that is the world we live in. Adjust accordingly.

Auditguy, getting out of "NAFTA" and all the other "outsourcing" deals disguised as "free-trade" will create jobs.
Funny, back in '93-'94 I didn't see people marching in the streets with signs that said "WE DEMAND FREE TRADE".
It was all done behind closed doors.
Clinton promised us; "Millions of high-paying manufacturing jobs and less illegal immigration from Mexico."
Now, was Clinton actually lying to the American People?
Just the opposite has happened and almost immediately after he pushed it through a lame duck congress.
This is what happens when you allow big business into our govt.
It's been 16 years now and everyone knows it is a failure!
When are we going to get out?
And the senate should do their job this time and Impeach Clinton retroactively for setting such a catastrophy upon the country.

Free trade is a whole different animal. When done right it brings benefit to both parties. However, we did not do it right, at least not in all instances, but that is a topic for another thread.
