Democrats usually set policy in motion that is inflationary
then they walk away and leave the office for a Republican
always a lag of a couple years to see the effects of policy
right now we are seeing the combined effects of three things

1. Fed encouraged a bubble in 1999
2. Clinton refused to share some of the annual budget surplus in 1997-98-99
3. Congress deregulated many energy delivery systems in mid-1990's

the bubble burst
we see surplus returned in part as rebate checks (or do we?)
energy prices shot up, then relaxed
now we feel the aftermath all at once
and morons blame Dubya Bush
he had nothing to do with any of the above
the current tax rebate checks are penny ante

next up: headline news on layoffs everywhere
as corporations give up on 2ndHalf Recovery

on mining stocks, their peaks will be spikey for sure
gotta ease out of them with profits
their combined mktcap is so small
