http://www.usajobs.gov/GetJob/ViewDetails/302967000 Not only can I do this job...but I can make it look good! I would make it look good! Not only would my pants be tight red valur but from space I will hit on ever single news caster who interviews me....even John Stewart! "Hi John, this is Shah in space, how have you been....you know it's lonely up here in the space station....lonely and cold John...will you come up and cuddle with me! You can be little spoon."

GE did that for a while, not sure if they still do. But sure the first 10% is easy! How about the second 10% and the third 10%? Remember once the ball is rolling and prifits start going up.....who has the balls to say "Well you see the first 10% was easy."

weekender As an investor in a company what's the one thing you want? Higher dividends right? Higher dividends are a function of two things. 1) Increased demand for a product which 2) Increases profits. Now we all know demand is not moving up. So how does one increase profits? Simple reduce costs right? And what costs can we cut? Fixed costs or variable costs? Now in the past cost associated with labor was a fixed costs. But today it can be argued that cost of labor is a variable costs. Thus, if you can cut your work force by 20% and maintain the same level of production you increase your margin thus allows higher dividends on stocks. To reward such thinking you then give the manager who had the idea to lay off 20% of the workforce a nice thank you note in the way of a bonus. Now you are down to 80% of your workforce...how can you further improve profits? How about you either hold raises for the workers or reduce their pay? Again same level of output from the worker, same level of demand but now all of the products are being produced at a lower cost to the company thus again pushing up profits and increasing dividends. Also in the mix sell off some non performing notes and life just keeps getting better for those who own majority stock in the company. Those who lost their jobs will never get paid what they were once paid, even if they get hired at the same place since the overall compensation package has been cut. Or you could always work for free and hope one day they will hire you? Maybe at your old pay? Welcome to the new normal, those with the liquid assets will do very well, those with the means of production will leverage to increase their liquidity and the middle class.......it will be pounded into a liquid.

Well that's for the above guys to cut. And yeah so you work for free.....and maybe just maybe you too can have a good life! I'm sorry but if you are DUMB enough to fall for it....you should be a slave. Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

Had to be, no way can the guy picking up the note declare he is loosing $4mill. Unless he writes off the depreciation of the property being $4mill the first year. I'm not sure, but the box seats in the stadium was nice and the food did not suck! But it's a nice way to transfer / sell property with out all of that tax crap the rest of us have to deal with! As Borrat would say "Verrrrry nice, Verrrrry nice!" As for a manager getting a bump in pay if you lay people off? Simple, reduce the work force by 10% keep the same level of output production collect bonus for saving the company money. What's so hard about that? It's called cutting the fat off the system. Problem is when you have cut away all the fat and are not cutting bone. I know I get a bump every time I find a way to save money for my office.

My Z has almost 30k miles and the previous owner was a DICK! Nice bike not bad.....would probably not have done it again if i had the chance. Now the ZX-14......well...it's....EVIL! And I kind of like that! My next bike? Honestly? say a 06 VFR. Loved that bike! But not what it became. If i can't find that maybe a late model Daytona? Also a great bike. Over all there are some amazing bikes out there. But in this down economy...I have no clue who is buying? I mean the second hand market is flooded! I just got word today of a VFR with all of 10k miles on her and a Daytona with all of 5k miles on her. Both clean and both going for about $5k!

We need a [PUKE] emoticon here... It's a Kaw (COW). Nough Said. If a big speedy beast is your thing? Hop on the 'Bus(a), Gus. There are great bikes for every taste. Oh come on that's a fracking nice bike! I rode one the other day and it was like a Cadillac! Or a leviathan still not sure...but when you twisted your right wrist things got all star trek like! I do like the Busa it is a great bike. But the ZX-14 has this look as if it's going to eat small children of wall street bankers and tear their flesh off while it makes their parents watch....it just looks evil! Ever stare at one...it makes your skin crawl! If Satan rode a bike.....I would have to say it would be a fire breathing ZX-14 Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

With what odds? 1/10 1/100 1/10000? They don't have to hire anyone! It's one thing to trade debt, it's another to trade in lives. Funny...both are tax free.

I'm sorry did you just compare employment to "crazy show where you can win money"? Yes congratulations graduates of 2012. If you wish to have a job that pays your student loans you will have to volunteer for company X selling underperforming notes and after two years if you are not dead or so far in the hole due to not getting paid we will pick one lucky contestant and give him or her a job!

1) BEST LINE EVER Now say it in Dutch! Ha ha! Oh that's good! Yeah work kid work....work doign what you love and one day...one day you may get a job! And you may eat! HA HA HA! Oh that's good! And 2) DZ's are not main line companies! Sure it's one thing to not pay tax on a $6mill property purchase. It's another thing to not pay taxes on any of the people who work for you and thus increase your bottom line. And before you say a word you know full well that's where this nation of ours is going. Soon we will be a nation of self employed contractors good today gone today..no benefits no nothing. Run yourself raggad for table scraps and think one day you may become a full time employee. I think the appropriate word we are looking for here boys is "Self induced bondage" as in these people willingly become slaves. God and I thought not paying taxes and getting huge tax breaks for buying and selling property was sexy! NOPE! Slave trade! That's where it's at! Highly trained, highly educated and highly motivated dumb asses drinking the coolaid hoping one day they may get a meal!

Hum....yeah sure they can walk whenever they want right? I mean if they do they will not get the possible job.....so they should stay right? So they are really not being held they are just told that if they stay they have a chance of getting a nice job....but if they go they won't! But if they stay and work super hard and make the compnay lots and lots of cash they may.....and since they are not getting paid....the company does not have to pay any taxes with respect to SS or other. God this is such a sexy idea! Who is dumb enough to work for free! And if they are WOO HOO! My god! SCREW tax free notes....say hi to "not really" slave labor! Oh my god this has got to be the best scam since companies figured out they could fire every one and hire them back as independent contractors!

GOD THAT'S FREAKING SEXY! So the dumb asses come over, work for FREE! The company makes money off their asses and tells all of them that they all have a chance to maybe get a job in a few years! WOW Stand back not paying taxes on homes or properties...say hi to slaves! Yum yum and a bottle of rum! I like this one! Only Wallstreet can make human trafficing and slave labor look sexy!

Well we all invest don't we? In education in our selves...it's just the way things turn out. Hum...you know....maybe that's what I'll propose to my higher ups for saving money. Free Internships! We will call in Investingships! Yeah you can come over work for us for two to three years and maybe on year 4 we pay you! Deal?

HELL NO! I almost did the same thing when I thought of unloading my condo! Not saying they are wrong for using this I'm saying "Shit...it would be nice if more of us could use this!"

I don't freaking know how that one works out either...but that's what one of the guys who co-owns the company said while we were enjoying his box seats at the stadium. Seeing how his watch cost more than a new 3 series I wasn't going to argue! And nope really 0.05 so yeah...$3k per deal The thinking is he makes nothign the first few years...what a way to live....and then the deals come together and he starts making money the second and third years! Funny thing...I was going to do the same to my condo. But then I found out how high my taxes would go and I sat down.

Ever wonder how the super rich can afford say a nice expensive place and never really have to worry about taxes? Here is how they do it! And I know because one of my close friends is a part of the machine! He's a broker on non performing notes. ( A note is a unit of debt for those that do not know, aka a mortgage or a check is a bank note) And here is how you can buy or sell a non performing note and pay either no taxes or get a huge tax write off! My friend sells a non performing asset that is worth on paper say $10 mill to someone who pays $6mill. The seller writes off the $4mill loss and the buyer also writes off the $4mill loss (not sure how this one works but that's what I'm told). The company he is brokering for collects 10% from the deal, both sides again write off another loss due to commission charges (cost of doing business). And then my friend will get 0.05% of the price for which the property was bought for. So everyone but my friend either gets a killer tax write off or a commission check. It's how the rich do it! Oh and there is no tax paid on the sale of the property. It's not really a sale it's a transference of the note aka the debt so you can't tax those who let the debt go since they are not making any money or those who buy the debt because well they are buying debt. And oh the guys who collect the commission build in the tax they have to pay on the commission into the price of commission (OK so they are paying taxes). If the above confuse you a little I had to draw it out for it to make sense but it's how Trump can be worth as much as he is and buy as much as he can without having to pay silly little things like taxes. The person who gets screwed is my friend.....he hustles until he finds a buyer. If he can find one he makes money. If not then it's for nothing. But with unemployment at a solid 10% what are his choices? Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

Not many kids I know rock the Gold Wing. But yes as the price of energy goes up bikes will be more of an option for some. But as for the "cool" factor that bikes are..... I'm not sure if this article is right or wrong? If you ask me bikes are in your blood. My grandfather rode, my uncle rides and so do many other of the guys on my mothers side of the family. And thus, I have to admit it is in my blood to ride. Sure the GPZ is sitting in the garage in need of some major carburetor work but...I have it...and it's close to my heart. Can you say the same thing about the latest I pad/phone/WTF? I'm an evolutionist I believe we do what we do subconsciously to get laid. Sure it's amazing sure it's fun sure it's (fill in the blank) but in the end it's about getting your summer sausage invited to the pick nick. As such I'm not so sure about bikes being on the way out? Yes they are expensive! Yes they are not safe! And yes in many parts of our country they are very impractical. But we still ride.... Can we say the same about the younger guys? What gets them more ass? A second hand 500 or the latest I phone? Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

hu? Well as it stands, it does appear that people or big companies can "buy" influence. Thus the question at hand, 1) Why can't causies focus? 2) What came first big government or big business?
