Joe, I have been on a Western Caribbean Cruise. Therefore, I have missed the discussions for the last 11 days. Did Wisconsin recall their Governor or not? It was amazing to see that in Belize the gas price posted was $11 +/- with individuals only riding bicycles and walking while being paid at approximately $1.50 - 2.00 per hour for the tour guides where tours are the leading economy. The guides stated that some only made $2 per day. Many individuals appeared to be living in what we would call in our country as shacks. My question, "with many states going to a "right to work" statutes will we be headed to the lowest to the lowest wages per hour as we compete with China, Africa and the Caribbean Countries?" With Bernake saying that we will be holding interest rates from .25 - .35% individuals may be actually paying Trust administrators to manage their Trust and loosing cash in addition to principal if they have to use the money to live. However, those who are invested in Stocks are actually gaining with the DOW recently exceeding 13,000 while only paying 15 percent taxes on long term capital gains. The Western Caribbean Cruise was great with all the tour available when stopped at the ports. Driving home I heard that Rush Lambaugh was again in hot water and with advertisers pulling their advertisements for his comments. First is was Glen Beck, now Rush Lambagh, Will the next be Shawn Hannity?
