I ordered the soft cover version of Cannibal after you put up the original post & it was listed as out of stock. Can you inform your publisher people are waiting on it. Thanks. [See Post.]

Dot.com bust v 2.0

Facebook is execrably inane. Or is it inanely execrable? Timewaster. I like interacting with human beings.

Sorry Ilana I know you hang there a lot and you manifestly are enamored of it. Maybe I am just too old.

I really don’t have any interest in Facebook. I don’t use it and one could say I don’t “get it” but my overall impressions are negative.

Well, there are some (at the Lew Rockwell site, for example) saying that FACEBOOK is overpriced, etc…. – but in any case, it is the stockholders who have to worry that issue.

What is in complete contrast is the “Obama Capitalism” of which I find this op-ed to be quite revealing:

Remember that Obama is “investing” money obtained by people at IRS-Gunpoint!!

A good affirmative actioned, Ivy League educated dreamer trying to understand the capitalistic business system is something akin to me trying to understand neurosurgery. Of course I have an advantage. At least I understand why surgery is done even if I don’t know how it’s done. The leftist elites who run the show in Washington haven’t a clue why we do business. Harvard PHD, my Glutuus maximus. I’ll take a good used car salesman any day,

FB is pure. distilled. evil. A gigantic info bank for the global governmentalists, and more brain-numbing distraction and pablum for the “hi-tech” masses. So Bono is contributing his paper profits to “charities in Africa”?? That’s like Gates and his “Whites Need Not Apply” Scholarships…More Congoid cheap labor and ethnic morons with Ph.D’s displacing Whites. Still, I did enjoy the monumental Wall St. Clusterf**k on IPO day: the NY Banks (using the usual FedReserve funnymoney) attempted the usual HFT bid-rigging and price ramp-up but, lo and behold, the whole system glitched, an actual Market had a chance to function, and and a gang of High Rollers who bought in during the first microseconds got burned. Now the parasites are sueing because…we had, for a change, some real price discovery. Beautiful.
