I have no problems with the wealth affect i think it's about time... Don't You? What the hell's wrong with the little guy coming up in this world, it's us small time investors who went through a lot to get where we are at today.

Yeah, and the other thing they are so afraid of is what? Low unemployment and wage increases. Give me a f*$kin break already. I kinda like having a job and let me assure you that the raises we've been getting absolutely suck, 2-4%. If you really walk on water they try to get you all pumped up and motivated with an extra 1 - 2% increase. Wow a couple grand a year! (I make a lot more than that on a good market day.)
Just my ignorant opinion but who deserves more of a reward for this economic prosperity than the people doing the work.
Yeah I guess without Greenspan we wouldn't have that wall of worry to climb and might get into a more painful blowoff rally, but cut us a little slack already.

You got that right. I put in the 8+ hrs a day at work, two kids, (2 hrs of karate) and work another another 3-4 hrs. a night on stocks. I shouldn't complain, my stocks have been doing great (by my standards anyway) but it gets to me sometimes.
