"It is worth noting that the concentration of wealth among the top 1% of the population does not necessarily indicate that the country is in a deep depression." Well now you are just changing your original comment. I never said that. Any country can alter the inequality by flooding their...

Just to point out. the extreme left is an ideology not a political party. The extreme left follows an ideology of socialism, leaning marxism and in some cases communism. So you may inferred that I was referring to a certain political party, I didn't name a political party. If my comments are a...

So based on your views, everyone, every person, in the US needs to be made successful by other successful people or its not fair in some way. The numbers you state make no sense. If they were accurate, the country would be in a deep depression. Now, are there some people doing better than...

I didn't assume you made watches, just being around that environment must have been pretty cool place to be.

Nothing to do with a capitalist society.

Watches, clocks, etc. are amazing pieces of engineering. The automatics are the best these days. No batteries. I am going to be on the look out for that Tabletop Set! What was your job there?

What if the world worked that way? What of every patient decided to hold off paying their bill? Doctors costs would go even higher. Saving them postage is not the answer. They don't care about the postage, its rolled up to an expense item that gets written off. Put a stamp on it or better yet...

WOW! What a story and such fine craftsmanship. I never knew Hanhart existed. Love their start. It looks like the late 1800's. The 1902 move to Germany was a great move. Beautiful watches and timepieces. It looks like their start was in the area of stopwatches and time instruments for racing...

It had to be. There was nothing truthful about that statement!

No words here can reduce that flame that ignites at a moments notice, unrelenting, vicious at times. Sounds like, you will survive but with scars that will never go away. At some point you will compartmentalize the pain, and put it in a box. It won't make it easier, and the box will open from...

Arrived? Where? I buy watches because I love the craftsmanship and the back stories of the brand, where they are made, the experience of the watchmakers, etc. Actually most rolexs are the poor man's watch as far as high end. Most are much to flashy and are fakes much of the time. Although, I am...

You would have to ask! I had 18, then sat my kids down and divided them between the three. Promised I was done with watches, then noticed there were more on my dresser. Do they multiply? Did I buy more?:) Now I have another 5. I seriously stopped buying watches once I added up the cost of the...

And then there are quotas and Affirmative Action.
