ParticipantThe irony of being against price controls and for a gold standard seem entirely lost on Paul.
I find it funny as shit.
Here is an explainer of what happened the last time a developed economy went to a precious metal standard.
(Hint: they got fucked big time)http://www.federalreserve.gov/boarddocs/speeches/2004/200403022/default.htm
Irony bonus point:
It is written by BernankeDouble irony bonus point:
It was American speculators that did the fucking.For some reason, reading this makes me want to scream “Earth First! Make Mars our bitch!”
But then…I have issues.

ParticipantBetween Haley, Wilson, Sanford, and Folks, South Carolina is the comedy gift that keeps on giving.
That is even before we mention Stephen Colbert.I seem to remember another alternative currency endeavour that South Carolina spearheaded previously.

I don’t care if the house was properly listed and got an offer from an unrelated buyer. I DO care if the deal was made before the house hit the MLS/market, and it’s particularly unethical if the deal was made between related parties (including anyone related in any way to the agents involved).
Yes, if banks/regulators required a minimum marketing time, that would be of great help. It would also help if they did periodic audits to ensure agents weren’t ripping them (and the taxpayers) off.
BTW, not sure where you got the “uninformed conspiracy nut” part, but most of my predictions made many years ago have been spot-on from the very beginning. I might be a lot of things, but “uninformed” isn’t one of them, particularly about things I’m willing to debate about (you’ll never hear me argue about things I’m “uninformed” about…I listen and learn from those who know more, rather than debate and make myself look like an idiot). Perhaps you shouldn’t trust so easily.[/quote]
Very few people who know me would describe me as “trusting”.
You have a very incomplete idea about how these things go.
One of my agents had a client who liked a condo but was beat out by a higher offer.
The agent then reached out to the other units/owners in the complex to see if they wanted to sell to her client.
The unit that responded and with which they made a deal was upside down.
They had a deal before the unit ever hit the MLS.
When they put it in the MLS, this was disclosed.
It was appropriate to put this in the MLS for comparative purposes.
There was no fraud.
There was no conspiracy.
The bank did not get screwed.
CAR, you don’t bring a lot to the table as a general rule.
You rant about “fraud” (apparently defined as any result you don’t endorse or understand) and call Realtors crooks.
Fraud has a very specific meaning.
It means a lie that damages another.
I don’t have a great love for most of my colleagues (many ARE crooks) but unless you have some actual examples of fraud please stop wasting pixels.I do pretty well without lying to anybody.
I think your incomplete understandings coupled with your declarations of moral turpitude put you about one step up from 911 truthers.
You are woefully ignorant and uninformed.
You are the kind of guy that is too smart by half and gets rolled by a dishonest agent and then brags about the deal he got.February 15, 2011 at 7:15 AM in reply to: Short Sale Realtor in collusion with buyer, is it legal. #667122urbanrealtor
