<Sorry, totally lost me on that one, is this post for somebody else?> It was for people who know how to think logically. You and a few others here make the common mistake of basing your argument on a post hoc fallacy: Post hoc fallacy Concluding that a casual relationship is a causal one: Every time I wash my car it rains, therefore washing my car causes it to rain. Superstition and magical thinking include Post Hoc thinking; This is what leads Jack and a few others to believe that the stock market goes up because the Fed does a coupon pass. Your superstitious and magical world of "Pig men", "Bullies", "Riskloves", "Brazil Americans" all fit perfectly.
