the "can't we all just be equal" line
smickles: i didn't mean
to sound communist
smickles: yeah, even if
there's no financial walls, (like i said in
the post on
the s.dice
thread) brokers should add value by gathering
together all
the exchange listings in one place and offering (possibly limited) advice on portfolios

the virtues of capitalism

the commercial software, and
the foss software works better anyhow
