This is what happens when you re-elect an incompetent idiot
This is what happens when the aristocratic lords of Wall St, the central controllers of our dysfunctional economy, get a well deserved slap in the face. How does it feel, to be a dupe of the greatest threat to survival the Human Race has ever faced? Your Wall St masters will pull your strings to make you try to twist this.
Vos combibo domini vestri irrumabo!
Yeah. Obama went after them soooooooo hard, I'm sure they are quaking in their boots. Four more years of mega bonuses and salaries.
And don't forget this: WALL STREET PROSECUTIONS UNDER OBAMA: ZILCH
That's the best slap we the people could muster under the circumstances. Obama had little to do with it. They spent billions to defeat him and it didn't work. Neither does your hyperbole. But you don't care that your distraction doesn't work on real people. You only need it to work on yourself.
Ok, look at the stocks that did dive. Coal? Major banks? defense?
It does not matter who was elected, we are still going to get more of the same o same o
The stocks dipped and then rose again. Isn't there a saner way to invest?
stock are trading cards
I know, right?
their value is what someone with money is willing to pay
Their value is determining elections.
do not mess with stocks myself
yes
Wait till Jan 1st when Bush cuts expire, sequestration kicks in, and the next debt deal is 3 months out.
Dow to 9000. Gold to 2000.
Some people are calling a Gold to Dow ration of 1:1 before this financial bullshit is all sorted out.
Let's really fix the economy. Put all that gold into the pockets of the bankers, brokers and uber investors. Then drop them into the Atlantic, near where the Titanic went down.
The Chinese will go grab that shit in a heartbeat :)
LOL The Russians have the sea bottom under the North Pole. They might beat the Chinese to the Titanic.
This is what happens when 90% of incumbents are reelected.
The system is busted. Only a fool would say otherwise.
Is that a fact? The 90% returned?
More hope than change, then?
I know it usually is at least 90%, granted that takes local elections into consideration.
It should be about 10% retention rates.
Why aren't we going after people in Hollywood? After all, they are the filthy rich who keep the Democrats in power so they will be left alone. We need to take what Barbara Streisand has and redistribute it, don't you think?
Good idea and that is why the super rich like them support the dems so they will be swept under the rug
Counterproductive: An Obama win will not aid those who want to continue to live off other people's incomes and investments.
