For some reason this development with TSA and the intrusive body scans and grope searches has really caught my interest. I caught Beck's show last Wednesday when I was in the car and he was focusing on Soros and the various Soros-funded groups. The TSA move strikes me as something very Soros-like (or Alinsky-like) - create confusion and disruption of society. Keep people on the edge. Change things from the top down and the bottom up. That seems to be what is being done with TSA and its relationship with the traveling public.

Also, wasn't there a story out there that indicated that a Soros-related entity or people have an interest in the company that makes these full body scanners. Am I recalling this correctly?

it's important to separate economic recovery from stock and bond market recovery.

I think we will see economic recovery before either the stock or bond markets recover.

And with the bond market in disarray right now and having so much risk, the only way that they will get money to flow in is to offer higher interest rates. This will have worldwide ramifications on interest rate that can then affect the economic recovery.

the crux of what I am saying is that the stockmarket is anything but a long term buy and hold right now.
