Is this true?

"The first misconception that most people have is that the Federal Reserve Bank is a branch of the US government. IT IS NOT. THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANK IS A PRIVATE COMPANY. Most people believe it is as American as the Constitution. THE FACT IS THE CONSTITUTION FORBIDS IT’S EXISTENCE. Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution states that Congress shall have the power to create money and regulate the value thereof, NOT A BUNCH OF INTERNATIONAL BANKERS! Today the FED controls and profits by printing WORTHLESS PAPER, called money, through the Treasury, regulating its value, AND THE BIGGEST OUTRAGE OF ALL, COLLECTING INTEREST ON IT! (THE SO-CALLED NATIONAL DEBT). The FED began with approximately 300 people or banks that became owners, stockholders purchasing stock at 0 per share- the stock is not publicly traded) in the Federal Reserve Banking System. They make up an international banking cartel of wealth beyond comparison. The FED banking system collects billions of doll"

correct me anywhere in the question if i am wrong,but,as of whatever i know to my knowledge,why do people give up on stocks trading when they know the stock prices will rise again and their money will be recovered ?

i’ve heard from many people,especially fathers of my friends that they pulled out out completely and for ever,not to go back again.

please also throw some light on the clear meaning of bear and bull market and how can we can profit from bull market,and the stuff about fraud profits
i’m a 18yr old boy,hopeful to enter the stock market jungle when 19,or possiblt at the earliest

now experiences of old guys whom i ask for their advices on stock exchange etc,tell me not to go for it,"its a big gamble" and that discourages me….but i know stock markets can make one richer with careful investing…so all i need to know is whether the money lost when the market crashes is really lost,or if it can be gained again though slowly over months or years when it rises again

seems like the same old lie repackaged….You people are struggling because of the drain on you by the poor…yeah right it couldn’t be taxing the poor and giving to the rich could it?
Example oil companies record the highest profits in history then recieve corporate welfare.
The poor are taxed depending on your definition of poor they taxed at a higher percentage than the rich…when I spoke of a tax drain I was speaking of welfare which makes up about one hundreth of a penny of our tax dollars..as far as middle class I don’t even think they exist anymore. 90% of the wealth in this country is country is controled by 10% of the people….what middle class?
The Black Gunman: Could far from poor equal wealthy? You never pay taxes and you prove my point.

Oil companies like to play a shell (no pun intended) game.
company 1 has 3 subsidiaries.
a sells to b who sells to c who sells again to a
the oild never moves, but the 'sale' price climbs so each company can make a profit and then the ficticiously expensive gas hits your friendly neighborhood gas pump!
fraud and it happens daily!
OIl companies generally announce 350%-500% profits
WOW
and none of it helps our economy (with the exceptions of the boards of said companies). The US gov't puts a HUGE tax per gallon and when is the last time you got 1/10 cent change for your gallon?

time to shake up the system and force, by law, the constant flow of oil, no make believe shortages!
TEXAS and OKLAHOMA produce huge amounts of oil, but they pay more than the nat'l average at times

FRAUD!!!
ALASKAN pipeline oil goes to JAPAN for 50% of what we pay for arab oil!
FRAUD!!!
Let Japan buy arab oil and we can drop prices selling our own
tyvm!
