      The US government has the capability to inject a trillion dollars into the economy , and yet the economy tanks ????? Ya wanna know why ???? Because trickle down economics is bullshit ...............it is bullshit because it doesn't trickle DOWN ......Those at the top hoard the wealth .........The guv should inject a trillion dollars into BUILDING THINGS , from the ground up .............Trickle UP economics .......Americans need to build things here at home ..........shore up industry , and screw GS .........when people have jobs , and make good money , they will spend money and create new jobs ..............build nuclear power plants , get our auto plants in gear to build HIGH QUALITY fuel efficient cars and trucks ( screw hybrids ) ......get our manufacturing asses in gear !!!!!! This is WAR , and we are a bunch of pussies ...........luckily , Obama is NOT a pussy ............but this 700 billion to investment banks ???? And they just HOARD the MONEY !!!!!!!!!!! WTF ..........talk about stupid ..............give me a trillion , and I'll get this economy rockin' with major infrastructure projects ...............and in Iraq , i would move ALL the troops to the oil fields , and screw Baghdad ..........we take the damn oil ( that's why we are there anyway ) , and when the factions stop killing each other they can share the wealth ............why should we die in Baghdad ?????? Screw Baghdad ..........deploy ALL our troops to the oil fields , and shoot any SOB that comes close .........This frickin' fighting from house to house is nuts !!!!! Get out in the open desert , where we can blast 'em from 5,000 yards away ...............and I am sorry to say , but perks and benefits for American workers AND CEO's , are a thing of the past ...........EARN your frickin' paycheck for WORKING ......This mentality of " Make as much money as you can , for as little work as possible " has got to GO !!!!!! THAT , is killing us ........and I'll tell you right now , Obama understands that

      you can rest assured no one will be going out of the war machine business anytime soon .......they might stop building cars , but they will never stop building tanks .........besides , if Toyota started building our tanks , they would last twice as long , get 50 % better gas mileage , and the resale value would double !!!!!!!! ....oh , and they would run quieter so we could sneak up on the enemy better

      bdp - " Just remember that the stock market is a game and loosely based on reality " AMEN TO THAT !!!!!!!! And yes , the big players do not want to kill the goose that lays the golden egg .......but their powers of manipulation can only go so far , and they are totally dependant on the masses continuing to chip in a few bucks to build the pyramid ........

      If the masses cash in their chips en masse , the market will tank , and there's nothing anyone can do about it .......but really to be honest , at these levels I wish I had 100 K to throw in and wait 5 years ..........unfortunatel... almost all of my investment dollars are tied up in a very sick dog

      I think we could ALL use a dose of optimism ......maybe I have one ( don't get your hopes up too far )

      Anyway , I went to one of those outdoor malls today , and just went walking from store to store .......went in 4 stores that had Siri for their "mood music" , and I went into Circuit City , and checked out the Siri display ....It was set up well , all the radios worked well , user friendly , and demo'd well ......... ( I have been disappointed by many Siri displays in the past )

      I actually have a feeling that this Christmas shopping season MIGHT not be as bad as people think it will be .........I think high end electronics will suffer , but stuff in the 200 dollar range just might fair well ......in fact , I can see people passing up the 1500 dollar TV's in order to buy the 100-200 dollar gadgets like Siri and iPods maybe ..........hopefully

      Also , one last little ounce of optimism ..........The S&P has a target PPS of 2.00 still ............That's ALL I got , hope it helps

      Cos - ok , thanks ......I would think Canada would be a good market .......Canadians have money , and the country is loaded with natural resources ( always a demand for that ) ...........In fact , I never hear "how bad" Canada is doing ........I wonder ..........every country in the world is on the news , and having a crisis , but I never hear a damn thing about Canada ......They're probably rolling in dough

      s162 - yes I agree , there are some "buys" out there right now .......I am runnin' very skinny on cash though , and I have a couple of items @ 6 bucks ........LCC and PDC .............and dang if LCC didn't go down to 4.90 !!!!! But the airlines are going up and down like yo-yo's , so I've been buyin' at 6 and sellin' at 8 for a while ( give or take ) ....and makin' a few bucks , but I have a LONG way to go to make back my Siri debacle .......at .16 it is tempting to buy a few more shares , but in a way , I would hate to compound my past mistakes with another one ........hell at .16 cents a share , maybe I could do a hostile takeover !!!!!!!! Hell 100,000 bucks will damn near buy the company !!!!! .......Now's a good time to buy some solid companies , no doubt ....wish I had my siri money right now !!!!!!!! Watch as the airlines go back up 2 or 3 bucks in a week .......The big boys are playing with the airlines ......good news this week , bad news next week , up and down , for months now

      To Everyone -- We are ALL guessing !!! However , some people here have a better grasp of the techinicals than others ...ie Cos and s162

      Those guys ( and others ) work pretty hard researching ( and I sure as hell am no number cruncher ) , but ultimately , we are all just making educated guesses ......

      But I want to say thanks to the guys that dig into this mess , and TRY to help .........The lesson I have learned ( and a very expensive one ) is to avoid stocks up to their ass in debt , and negative earnings year after year .......investing 101

      But like everyone else , I thought satrad was a smoking concept with much potential .........but my gut feeling from the start was " satrad is blowing too much money " ............and to coin a phrase from African - Americans , " I shoulda listened to my first mind " ........Crap

      I voted NO RS , NO DILUTION ..........I am not giving Howard another 100 million shares

      One glimmer of hope , if the auto industry gets its ass in gear ......Otherwise , forget it ....................oh , and if the banks let go of some money !!!!!!! But really , refinancing is not the answer to anything ......MAKING MONEY IS ..........the days of running on credit are over for everyone ........time to EARN ...........this entire nation needs to take back global market share with a vengeance .......this is WAR , and only a wartime mentality will prevail

      The economic climate in the world is very serious ....maybe a lot more sirious than we really comprehend

      Siri is going to have a helluva time retaining current subs , much less aquiring new ones

      All this talk of refincing debt , all this talk of renegotiating loans , all this talk of RS , new shares etc etc , is just MORE funny money to prolong the inevitable .......It is BS

      The ONLY half assed decent SOLUTION - REAL SOLUTION , REAL MONEY , is to TRY for a government bail-out ........1 Billion for 2 or 3 channels .........Maybe there isn't a chance in hell of that getting done , but my question is this ........would it F'ing hurt to TRY !!!!!!!!

      It's a helluva lot better than the alternatives of nothing more than diluting current shareholders into oblivion , and then hope you can sucker in another million idiots like me

      I voted NO RS , and NO DILUTION ......F 'em sell some assets to get the money , or take some cuts in pay .........we've done our part

      Why the hell should we approve another 3 billion shares , just to watch Howard recieve another 100 million shares .........poor F'ing Howard

      New financing will not do crap .....It's just new debt paying old debt

      Siri is going to have to figure out a way to EARN a billion dollars real quick , because borrowing it is not going to help us , or Siri , at all because growth is going to be stagnant for quite some time .......and possibly could reverse rather easily

      Just out of curiosity ....What is keeping Siri from moving into Canada ???? I am not sure of satrad's areas ......but Canada is a helluva market for satrad ............I guess that would require launching 2 or 3 more birds , which of course Siri hasn't got the money to do ...but it seems to me that Canada is the only opportunity for growth at this time ......

      So Siri should sell Canada 2 or 3 channels in exchange for Canada footing the bill to launch the birds , and granting access to their country .......maybe I am thinking too far outside the box , but everything inside the box is dead and stinkin'

      GM's grand idea is to build hybrid escalades for 75,000 dollars that get 20mpg ..........no wonder they are in the crapper

      Hybrids in general are a joke , and no one will be laughing in 5 years when they have to buy new batteries for 5,000 dollars

      and Hybrid Escalades are the mother of all jokes

      If the U.S. auto companies concentrated on building high quality , fuel efficient , gasoline / or natural gas , cars and trucks ...........and the government removed most of the auto standards like airbags ( I know they are for safety , but a seatbelt is good enough for me if it will save me 2,000 dollars on every car I buy ) .........and the auto industry removed perks and benefits ( if you make 30 dollars an hour , you can buy your own health care and save for retirement ) ...... we might as well get used to the fact that the days of perks and benefits are coming to an end ...........if America doesn't get it's manufacturing / exports back , none of us will have a job .........and we now have to compete in a global market .........There is no way American companies can continue to fund pensions and health care .............. AND , I might add , the days of CEO's making 100 million dollars needs to end too ........ especially when their companies are failing .......... that's rediculous

      I know we are supposed to be talking SIRI here , but hell what's new ??? This week Siri sucks 3 cents more / less than last week ????

      Sirius Long Hauler - Propaganda , Military recruitment , Public service information , Emergency broadcasts , Disaster relief information , Public debates during elections , Call - in questions and answers , Tax code information .............let's say there is an earthquake in Texas ....if you have satrad , you go right to "channel 10" or whatever , and you get details of where to go for help or whatever , without having to search the airwaves waiting to find the public service announcement on some channel at some time ........"channel 10" will broadcast info 24/7 ..............and frankly , who cares what or how they use it ........just buy it !!!!!!! They'll think of something ...................oh , and for all you people that think the government will use satrad for "mind control" !!!! hahahahahah get a life

      31October - yes you are right , there are too many things on todays cars that add to the weight , and to the price of cars ..........I personally would rather not have airbags , and save 2,000 dollars on every car I buy .......In fact , if my airbag ever deploys , all it's going to do is slam my fist into my face , because most of the time I drive with my hand at 12 o'clock on the stearing wheel
