sorry, but patriotic buyers become roadkill

I sympathize with those who want a patriotic rally
but that does not help the situation
what? create a bubble with a flag pasted on?

The System is doing what it can to stem the tide
enable corporate buybacks
limit short selling
and more than I not privy to

I decided on Mon-Tuesday to have no part in patriotic buying
a couple friends did, and now feel like fools
esp one whom I spoke with last night
his new purchases on Tuesday are down 25%
he has five children

this is a very complex problem
the best thing we can do is deal militarily with the enemy
and unleash covert action

watch the oversold rally when the USMilitary announces their initial successful actions
trouble is: the really valuable action will be covert

I applaud your patriotism
the US economy will survive this threat
our recovery is more important than throwing money away
