>> Here's the Dow chart for the last 5 years......maybe it will jug your memory:

Did you NOT KNOW, when you put your IRA in equities, that there was the possibility their values would go down as well as up? This was, after all, the basis of your entire complaint with GWB's attempt to privatize a small portion of SS.

So, if GWB wants to invest a tiny fraction of your retirement money into more aggressive (still, less so than equities) investments, it is bad. But if YOU want to put your OWN retirement money in high-risk investments, it is all GWB's fault.

You see how f*cking stupid this is?
