  • 11:58 .@koukopoulos got specific w/ @umairh on US auto article & also on how illiquid markets do not necessarily equate with illegal activity #

  • 12:17 .@umairh Econ major in college, licensed series 7&3 broker - worked at Citadel. What are your credentials? (cowards hide behind credentials) #
  • 12:23 .@umairh when you confuse illiquid markets w/ illegal activity, you betray your market ignorance. If u took econ101 -- i didn't stick :) #

  • 00:27 @Nickdrumr2 :D #
  • 00:28 @FemaleProdigy well you seem to be on a roll when it comes to winning :) #
  • 00:33 Anyone thinking World worse off now -- than a generation ago ('89) or the 1 before that ('69) ... is either stupid, ignorant or a candy ass #
  • 01:12 @makuahine (Hi :) because if you look at the world in meaningful chunks of time (like generations ie 20yrs) -- World has never been better #
  • 01:17 @makuahine You got a lot of losers insinuatin g crisis (@umairh predicting USA "1st failed state) -- 2strum up "consulting" fees - worthless #

  • 01:48 where bed-wetter sermons from @umairh wring hands over "record transfers of wealth" Lyme & Tabarrok say "Of course" World Capital Levels :D #
  • 01:53 Capitalist Globalization, in broad strokes, has resulted in historic redistribution of wealth -- from rich 2 poor nations - Duh! :D #
  • 01:56 Similar phenomenon happened to non-communist Pacific Rim, most notably japan -- wage imbalance equalized - japan now builds cars in US :) #
  • 01:59 if you don't have the guts to compete in this world of ideas - find a different hobby. Edge of sword no place for cowards or candy asses :) #
  • 02:07 @paulbeard not true, I'm in general agreement w/ @umairh on current direction of walmart. Don't like his shallow platitudes & hokey branding #
  • 02:10 @paulbeard wadr get substantive paul -- specific examples -- i'll elaborate. @umairh prob nice fellow, but poster child for shallow hype ... #
  • 02:15 @paulbeard + @umairh attacking/judging all the time "Obama FAIL" entire groups of people he'll essentially call crooks & incompetents :) #
  • 02:23 @paulbeard respect his right to his opinion --I'm simply adding mine to balance the fluff of self righteous platitudes and jingoisms :) #
  • 21:19 @paulbeard wadr speak for yourself Paul -- to each their own style :) #

  • 12:35 @_ndub may i ask: why are redheads so restless? Is it because they tend to be atheists? Or is it simply because of the freckles? :\ #

  • 15:30 How on earth @umairh can companies like #Apple who aggressively outsource everything other than marketing & design -- help US unemployment? #

  • 15:58 @livecut when @umair touts "thick-value/Awesomness" as "solution" ie Hot air jargon 4 "Better Product" No actionable info -- just judgmental #
  • 16:04 .@livecut @umairh trivializes what's required & role luck plays in great fortunes. Awkwardly curve-fits facts to his hokey, Nth Step, model #
  • 16:11 .@livecut aggressive apple outsourcing caused loss of intellectual property bit.ly/tfctR -- clones proliferate bit.ly/2ddoj7 #
  • 16:20 Apple doesn't catch shit (like walmart would) for being an aggressive outsourcer, or enemy of open-source -- because of it's Hipster status #
  • 16:23 I will agree with @umairh on one thing -- get off the irrational "I Hate Walmart" bandwagon ie Hipster Degenerates find success offensive :) #
  • 16:42 Apparently @umairh doesn't understand Apple's outsourcing strategy & it's contribution to the "stagnation of America's industrial base." #
  • 16:48 .@livecut manufacturing outsourcing strategy isn't scalable solution2 Jobless Recovery problem. iTune downloads can double w/o job creation. #
  • 16:50 .@livecut mind u, I'm not against outsourcing or overly concerned w/ losing manufacturing jobs (~10% of Econ).@umairh argument inconsistent #
  • 16:52 @livecut i like Apple products (but not iTunes) & welcome them into mix of US economy, but they are boutique niche -- not scalable solution #
  • 17:00 Apple is transforming itself -- from a technology generator -- to what passes for technology -- in Italy :D A Mama's Boy Design Company :D #
