We will never go below $9000 ever again, ever. No golden retrace coming, when bitcoin did a golden retrace in past bull market, it didn't take 80+ days to do it, it happened with a week or so.
That is bold prediction since we are nto taht far away from it. I totaly agree with you that we cant go that much lower as we are now, but less then 10% drop is totally posible. There is maybe even more then 50% chance that it wil happen. We will definitely go below $9,000 again. And soon. Oh, get a hat will you. |

I have been to London once when i was 13 on holiday with mum and dad.
I found it to be dirty unmodern and crowded.
And the IRA bombed our hotel, luckily we had just left or I probably would have died.
I have not been back since.
But I did enjoy the Tower and the colt 45 air gun that I bought.
I was in London yesterday for the first time this year to check the Stanley Kubrick exhibition before it closes. Much of this summer has been spent on islands with populations of 10-1000 people so I found it more than a little disorientating. I sat on a bench for 10 minutes and watched more people go past than I've seen in an entire year.  Well, at least nobody bombed your bench. |

Were you born with a silver spoon in your mouth sir?
lol hardly lol was it hardly stuffed in ?  er...read the book (it looked over many centuries). It does not give an answer to what is right and what is wrong and/or what is preferable and what it not. It simply described what happened and when. To your first statement: No, the disparity does not steadily increase. It increased for a few centuries, correct, then decreased between 1930-1940 (following WWI/WWII combo, separated by just 20 years) until 1975-1980, then steadily increased again until now. To your second statement: yes, there not many instances where the poor move several strata in one generation. https://www.amazon.com/Great-Leveler-Walter-Scheidel/dp/0691192677/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=the+great+levelerThanks I'll buy it by the end of the month. Ain't got spare cash to swat a fly atm. Unless there's an online free / pdf / bootleg version of it somewhere, then you can let me know. But let's not forget, its just one book from one author - and it is socio-economics, something that is very hard to predict, even when using past data as example. Think of what happened during the black plague. I remember reading some charts about the economic impact it had on the wealthy vs poor, if I find it I'll stick it here.

Communism/ socialism has definitely gained popularity among the younger crowd. Doesn't take a math genius to look at where all the new productivity gains are going to, heres a hint: its not going to hourly workers on the bottom the totem pole. Wealth disparity is similar to what it was in the gilded age.
Wealth disparity is not the worst thing...historical forces that typically remove the disparity are much more disagreeable. I am reading a book that systematically looked at what reduces inequality..and turns out only major wars and deadly pandemics (plaque in medieval Europe) were able to temporarily reduce inequality. All societies "naturally'" trend toward increasing inequality in relatively peaceful conditions (over centuries). It's called pareto distribution. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcEWRykSgwEhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4GMUamUjT8 |

Observing.....................to little, to low prices......
Cumming Bull Observing $10,313.90 Mooooo...  Bad here @Icygreen Bhai milk is out this bat BTC wrong guy here Not cool bro, we have a mixed bag of posters here from young to old. Every age group loves and enjoy nudity here, but there is a limit to everything. Please respect that boundary and don't turn this thread into a porn site. Some might be okay with this, but many will not because you are a new poster. You already got a red tag for BCH's post which I don't agree, but you are not helping your case either. PS : Not bashing you just letting you know. Ah... Lauda still abusing the Trust system I see. When are you gonna get yourself a hat? |

It's been like that since 1952 regardless of the different countries various and changing affiliations and memberships, and long before any single market.
The point is that it is neither unheard of nor hard to keep an open border. All you need is a will to do so.
Today's world is not the same. And you're talking about countries with a similar culture, not trying to compete with each other. The UK wants to leave the EU as it feels special, and wants to become some kind of Ayn Randian utopia where anything goes. Because Eire and Northern Ireland is so different in culture. http://theconversation.com/irish-border-after-brexit-an-expert-on-norway-sweden-explains-how-to-keep-things-smooth-88749EDIT: link |

There are a lot of things that are differently taxed in Sweden and Norway, And the Norwegians do smuggle a lot of things to Norway from Sweden, but that is counteracted with spot checks and cameras. Open borders with no wall doesn't mean you are aloud to freely move goods, just people.
OMG. smuggling stuff from Sweden to save on taxes? This sounds grim. Indeed. https://www.newsinenglish.no/2019/09/06/shopping-in-sweden-sets-a-new-record/ |

Porsche type 597 Jagdwagen, mid 50s during Swedish tests. We decided not to buy. But it would be a cool Porsche to own.  Why there are chains in the wheels? You obviously do not live in a country with snow and ice  It gives you better grip on snow and ice, there are parts of Europe where you have to have snow chains with you in your car in the winter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tc1WLvTrjSQThis kind of question makes me realise how different is Bitcoin community. I own tire chains, but also winter tires and I know how and when use both of them. Someone else lives in places where the sun always shine and there is no winter. We both love bitcoin. EDIT: Note to self: save this image when observing 846,347 Personally I prefer snow socks/auto socks, easier to put on and works just as well, although they wear out fast. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvPXqLoWaHYNever used snow socks. I always use winter tyres (M+S) during winter months and on snow. Put on chains on serious ice on the road or steep climbs. I use studded tires in the winter, I only use the socks if I get stuck. But just in case, I do have chains in the trunk too. https://info.kaltire.com/are-studded-tires-for-you/ |

Here's a new round of the WOW (WO-Where?) game. I think it's going to be fairly difficult, at least until a few pixels are uncovered. However, the WO participants have already proven how good at this they are, so it might be cracked earlier than I imagine. I have 5 smerits as of now, but I'm setting the prize for this round at a conservative 3 merits because I'm sure a couple of merits will go before I'm done catching up.  Damn..... i’m not able to search good cause I need to go to the hospital today.... nothing worse but gonna be there for a few hours Goodluck to everyone in finding where eddie is..... also the GF looks very lovely You know I would merit but i’m complete out @ the moment  So have a +x-merit from me Having your liver replaced? |

As has already been said above, both Norway and Sweden are part of the Common Market.
The UK is leaving the Common Market. The situation is not comparable.
Yes they are, that open border was there before both countries was a member of the common market. Again, irrelevant. The Common Market started in 1958. Some members of this forum act we are still living in the 1950s, but the rest of the world has moved on. So what, Sweden and Norway joined at different times, yet always had an open border. When the common market started is irrelevant, what is relevant is that you can have one country in the common market and one outside and still have an open border as demonstrated by the Nordic countries. |
