cfoent: OT: Some here discuss the manipulation of the market, but it is insignificant when compared to the media. Between editing, conformity, and ignorance, we all get a distorted view of 'reality'. Kind of like looking in the mirror at the circus?

I will give them some credit, with all the thousands of investments they do cover, they don't do too bad of a job. It is difficult to not say anything when your paid to have a mouth (Maria). Restraint reQuires strength, I should know, being very weak in this area. : )

Q rocks...

along those same lines, i saw part of an interview this weekend on Fox news of Donald Trump. So the questions goes by, why do you want to be President, etc, ...

And the obvious comes up, "What do you think of your chances of getting elected?"

[Paraphrasing from memory]
it depends on the economy. If it slows down, which it very well could next year, then people may not be as content and will want a change.

And of course, the interviewer never bothers to ask, "Why might the economy slow down?" One of the biggest real estate magnates is giving a projection of what the economy might do and they don't bother asking, "WHY?"

AAARRRRGHHH! As the old saying goes, "I coulda killed him!"
