Some of my friends in the oil industry are getting 20%+ annual raises this year in their base salaries - sounds a bit like inflation is rearing its head in salaries and gasoline., etc...Nasdaq was down because of inflationary concerns - wonder when the govt will acknowledge the inflation that exists in the economy...

Jim, remember you were saying the issue was essentially a campaign year topic that boiled down to votes... news.yahoo.com Many carried signs in Spanish that translated to "We are America" and "Today we march, tomorrow we vote." Others waved Mexican flags or wore hats and scarves from their native countries. Some chanted "USA" while others shouted slogans, such as "Si se puede!" Spanish for "Yes, it can be done!" ----------------------------------------------------
