Can I use my share to buy a new car? I need one to get to work, and it is 2 hours a day commuting.

I like to go to the Bank of Canada online and look for accounts that were left untouched. I then make up a fake ID and claim the money as mine.
Minimum wages

Many small businesses cannot afford to pay any wages at all let alone the artificially high minimum wage and America's bottom-heavy wages are making it increasingly difficult for us to compete in the global economy.

If we want to compete, we are going to have to lower the minimum wage below the levels in countries such as China and India.

toilet paper?

Have you ever stopped to ponder what you would do if you ran out of toilet paper? How would you handle the situation? Toilet paper affects our daily routine, and yet, it is seldom remembered. It is a vital necessity that is usually taken for granted.

Step 1: Always begin by folding the toilet paper sheet by sheet. This method would minimize the number of sheets wasted. Crumbling the toilet paper into a bunch would limit its usage to one wipe; you would practically waste the entire roll.

Step 2: When blowing your nose, start from the first sheet to the next. Not one sheet of toilet paper should be left untouched when you are blowing or wiping your nose.

Step 3: Avoid using toilet paper as a substitute for cleaning anything other than the human body parts. Why use toilet paper when there are materials that are already designed for that purpose?

Step 4: Always be conscious of the number of toilet paper sheets you use, depending on the load of your task.

We have something similar with Polish workers deciding to go home due to the collapse of the pound compared to the euro

This is a well written and sobering article. I believe the only way we are going to get out of the recession / depression that we are facing is thru banking reform. History has shown us that fractional reserve banking practices will always spike the economy. Government bailouts will defiantly help and is needed quickly in different areas of our economy, but without banking reform, unfortunately this will only be short term.

You forgot to mention mutual funds. Then I know he is lying.

We shall proceed as planned, and as soon as we return to 1985, we'll destroy this infernal machine. Traveling through time has become much too painful.
