RE:Capital gains increased taxes WILL hit farmers HARD,,,,,,,,,You post many good comments but out of curiosity as you own as you have posted Utilities , penny mining stocks industrials , but never have you ever acknowledged owning any Energy stocks , so my question is what brings you here . Is your TM , pennypony or Telus or your bond portfolio too desd a site that you now are looking for an exciting site , that you want to use as a forum , that's without owning , correct, Sounds just like a number of validation seeking non-owners. Now prove me wrong , you are tops on pasting stuff , pls show me one or more O and G stocks you own and l will humbly apologize , if not again why are you here.
