It has been proven the dow isn't a reflection of the economy so much.

Profit is profit no matter what the economic forecast looks like.

Wanta know why fuel is the same price as it was before the meltdown? Besides the tanking of the dollar, but that's not the whole story.

With Corp taxes the second highest in the world, other than GE we pay more than our fair share, time to go after the 47% of Americans not in poverty to pay vs now not paying.

I beg to differ. He's the plan:

1. Punitive taxation of corporations and small businesses
2. ???
3. Jobs

Inflation will make the box worth more than the money.

W w w w what ????

Obama Economic advisors, Paul Krugman, Leftists in general, etc. SWORE up and down that we have to worry about DEFLATION, NOT inflation !!!!

They swore we needed to spend TRILLIONS MORE !!!!

Are you telling me they are and were completely full of shit ???

Say it ain't so....

Sometimes I think we would all be better off with no stock market. I think fear and speculation are a leading - if not the primary - cause of recessions.

Stock traders, brokers, investment firms, money market managers, etc, all make money in good and bad times. The only people that get screwed are investors.

If people turned off the market reports and went to work, we would probably be better off.
