This is impossible. Ostupid has declarefd the crisiss to be over that the economy is chugging along again.

The stock market is up. Probably due to all those compannies laying off all their workers to maximize profits and getting the “most” out of the poor slobs left to pick up the pieces.

California and Oregon are the role models for tax and spend green controlled states.

Oregon is apparently going through a mass exodus of those who are willing and capable to work and tired of Greenies being their boss and new religion.

Of course we are seeing the same trend happen here in California.

“Anyone else sensing this extreme disconnect?”

I sure did everytime I checked with Fox Business last week and the Women talking heads for the most part were so excited about nothing moving the indexes up.

Today was another such day.

Makes me remember the days when Greenblather was the Fed mother under Clintoon. He would say something, and a friend who had been a top CFO until he became a consultant, would call me up after the blathering and ask me, “Did you understand what he just said”!

I would say no, and neither did my friend Then we watched the markets go crazy with their exuberance.

Finally, I got out of all of our mutual funds and went to what were good bond funds then. Then the bottom fell out in May of the the Clintoon’s last year in the supposedly never lose Nasdaq stocks and the old bloated companies in the Dow.

Annoying huh? The disconnect? Actually today the market is currently only up 3 points, coming back from up 100 or so..
