[Adamus]

In addition to reducing the costs of production, marketing and processing, futures markets provide continuous, accurate, well-publicized price information and continuous liquid markets. Futures trading is [thus] beneficial to the public which ultimately consumes the goods traded in the futures markets. Without the speculator futures markets could not function. -- Professor Richard Teweles (The Futures Game)

Communism rescues Capitalism

[Scott47]

Capitalism is the even distribution of wealth, Socialism is the even distribution of misery. (Unless you are at the top.)

JTrader, have you had too much coffee today?

Capitalism is the even distribution of wealth, Socialism is the even distribution of misery. (Unless you are at the top.)

Capitalism and socialism are just dogma. A truly pragmatic political system would take the useful policies from both and abandon the rest as claptrap, fear, and nonsense.

Here's another of my fav quotes:

We seek not to imitate the masters, rather we seek what they sought.

Sadly I don't know who it's from. Andy Pandy maybe

I think, therefore i am.

wikipedia -

"Cogito, ergo sum" (Latin: "I think, therefore I am"), sometimes misquoted as Dubito, ergo cogito, ergo sum (Latin: "I doubt, therefore I think, therefore I am")[1], is a philosophical statement used by René Descartes, which became a foundational element of Western philosophy. The simple meaning of the phrase is that if someone is wondering whether or not he exists, that is in and of itself proof that he does exist.[2]

Descartes's original statement was "Je pense donc je suis," from his Discourse on Method (1637). He uses the Latin "Cogito ergo sum" in the later Principles of Philosophy (1644), Part 1, article 7: "Ac proinde hæc cognitio, ego cogito, ergo sum, est omnium prima & certissima, quæ cuilibet ordine philosophanti occurrat.", by which time it had become popularly known as 'the "Cogito Ergo Sum" argument

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

And this one:

Most people like to think of themselves as risk takers, but what they really want is a guaranteed outcome with some momentary suspense to make them feel as if the outcome had been in doubt. The momentary suspense adds the thrill factor necessary to keep our lives from getting too boring.
