Vogon logic if ever I heard it.

I think I preferred the vogon poetry.....

Well, do you have anything to say on topic about financial matters or you just got no opinion at all?

Think you'll find more than enough contributions from me on financial topics.

If you have no opinion on this matter, if you can't argue effectively that your view is more correct than mine or anybody's else why are you then polluting this thread with pointless demands for me to stop talking about something that I have much better understanding about than you? This is uncivilized barbaric behavior worthy of the communist scum - trying to shut mouth of people they don't agree with - you should go work to Russia, they'll like you.

Sorry, where did I say I had no opinion on it? Doesn't follow I've got to bore everyone endlessly banging on and on and on about the credit crunch, and your curious views on financials institutions.

BTW Much better understanding?!?! I got an A grade in my higher in economics, and took it as an elective for a couple of years uni as well. Unlike you I don't think that makes me an expert, but I'm not completely clueless and I'm married to someone who is an expert ...

Your first post in this thread was attempt to shut me up.

Don't read me then, what's the problem? Credit crunch is a pretty current topic and my "curious" views like banning short sellers are actually being implemented in practice, hopefully other things too.

Did they teach you in school that in discussions on economics you should be telling others to stop talking when you don't have any other arguements? Your attitude is the same as that used by Putins thugs.

First point - Cause you're boring. It's a topical subject, of interest to some. You're sucking all the oxygen up and making it very tedious.

Second point - Impossible, your fingerprints are all over every economy related post with your pronouncements from above. Give it a rest Warren.

Third point - See point one. It's not a discussion, it's you loving the sound of your own voice. You don't debate, you pronounce, based on some modules you did in shonky degree from a few third rate institutions.

Well, let's just look at my predictions:

1) house prices are falling like a stone.

2) short sellers got banned

Who else just 12 months ago was as sure as me that house prices in this country would drop well more than 20%? Who else in here now that doubts it would actually happen?

You see snaw my degrees might be from ex-Soviet Uni and from ex-Poly in the UK, but the difference between me and you is not that you got higher quality red brick uni piece of paper, but the fact that I actually got more than one clue about economics where as you don't. That's why you try to shut me up - if you don't like to read what I post put me on ignore list.

Short selling is a valid market tactic, it's not to blame for the credit crunch - it just exacerbated it in these volatile times. It'll come back. I don't like it either. It's way to soon to see what the impact of it will be in the long term.

You mention any of your other wacky ideas - telling people what they can spend bonuses on etc. Loved that one ...

And I'm sorry, you're the only person who thought we were in a housing bubble - no one foresaw that

Now you're actually amusing.

If you're such an expert put your money where your mouth is. Talks cheap, get in the stock market and start making millions, which I'm sure you're capable of with your superior economic knowledge.

fight. fight!

ATW can you get one of your hamsters to give -me- a back rub please?
