Hi Blue; I saw that Clinton suggestion more as a lets test the wind, or beat the opposition to it. Believe me he knows damm little about the market and was only doing this because of a petition made by Wall Street. As much as I jump Greenspam, I will give him credit for being direct and saying NO he did not think S.S. into the stock market was a good idea. I noted that the day he responded to that question, some others on the Fed Board jumped up and walked out of the room, as if to signal him that he had said something out of turn. -------------------- While I see congress needs to have an oversight and to impose limitations, and create rules that makes for a level playing field, when ever you get Government into making decisions as to what stocks are bought and sold, and sticking tax dollars into the market , you open up a can of worms that has no end to the avenues of corruption. Now instead of reasonable regulation, you move towards total control. We already have enough problems with out this nightmare being added to the soup. Jim
