The deficit is Just changing hands from the Government to the Investors...

personal debt as at an all time high...but probably not going to get paid off as easily as the government..

One way to turn this economic turmoil around is to simply put money back into the individual investors accounts...would work more quickly than interest rate cuts, and tax cuts..

Simply imply new rules regaurding the ability of Brokers, Institutions and and Banks to sell stock Naked...

This is why the Dowdy has held up so well...no compounded selling has occured there...

Expect some rule changes on the Nasdy listed stocks in the near future..

Remember this is their debt. They created it. They went on the spending rampage. I dont automatically assume 8 % increases in my spending year after year. They need to be squeezed and forced to use technology to cut the expenses of their bureaucracy. It used to be that being a civil servant didn't mean high pay but you had job security. No longer true. Until they are told no more they will increase the spending with no interest in controlling it. The sickening part is that they do so little when given so much.
Programs are one thing but when absolute fools like Rich think that people are wrong for demanding accountability from Lala Land it shows you how successful they are in dumbing down the populace. Rich and his like never complain that 90 cents on the dollar in the food stamp program goes to the administration of it. That is mean spirited that they take 90 cents. That is greed. That is corrupt.
