What is happening in Europe is impacting our 401Ks (stock market) over here. The pending fiscal reform regulation is also impact the investing atmosphere. Together, they will influence the Nov. election outcome if this situation persists well past August.

Obama needs to turn things around before a state Gov. such as in NJ can turn things around. I agree with what Obama did by infusing huge capital into the economy. It is similar to what Bush/Cheney did with sending huge sums of money towards Pentagon's way when he entered the Iraq way. What Obama did when he took on the reigns to fight the war on our economy is very similar to what his predecessor did.

But now it is time to draw a line in the sand and say enough is enough. Cut down on spending by bringing the troops home to begin with. That will bring down the deficits considerably. And then target the entitlement programs which should include tax breaks to the rich. (Yes indeed,, I consider that tax break as what the rich consider as entitlement).

Yes, I live outside of San Francisco in Silicon Valley. It is a wonderful place and I wouldn't trade it for any place including Paris or Switzerland.
