  1. ...only an engineered recession on US Has Been In Recession Since December 2007 · · Score: 1

    Hmmm - Since December eh??? Suspiciously around the same time the Federal Reserve started reducing the amount of money in circulation. Just look at the price of anything of value in comparison to the US Dollar (real estate, gold, oil) and then follow what the Federal Reserve has done. They've reduced interest rates spurring people and businesses to borrow money, but reduced the amount of money in circulation so that there isn't as much money around - so it is impossible for the money to ever get paid back. This is an engineered recession, not a real one - unless people do what the central banks want you to do - sell what you have of value to pay for your debts, or better yet borrow more to pay for your debts, and then they'll increase the money supply. Anybody left holding anything of value will get richer, those that sold everything just to live, get poorer.

  2. Re:Proof that this guy is wrong on Professor Comes Up With a Way to Divide by Zero · · Score: 1

    You were ok up to and including this line:

    0^0 = (0/1)*(1/0)

    but (0/1) * (1/0) = (0*1)/(1*0)
    = 0/0

    I'm not standing up for him at all, but you made a boo boo in your math...

  3. Number line isn't straight - it's curved. on Professor Comes Up With a Way to Divide by Zero · · Score: 1

    He didn't solve anything at all... When mapping the real number line it isn't a straight at all. Zero is effectively 1/infinity or -1/infinity. In Einsteinian / Hawking style math / physics, the concept of infinity will warp space-time or in this case the number line. On the number line infinity will bend back around to zero (one/infinity). By stating nullity is 0/0 is no different than stating just zero. Zero is a concept not a number.
