Guess these business guys shouldn’t have backed Obama.

Oh well.

Go pay your taxes - the moochers need the money. :)

In before the idiots that will tell you this isn’t “going Galt” because it’s not exactly like Rand’s book.

Anybody who has ever raised a kid knows how this works...you can tell them til your blue in the face about how bad the consequences will be if they make bad choices, but in the end they always seem to have to learn it the hard way.

This nation has just touched the hot stove...

I think we are going to see an interesting phenomenon.

Huge dumps of stock that do not result in the stock market dropping. But how can this be?

The market indicators are based on a limited number of companies. If these companies do not move, it strongly limits how much the rest of the market can move.

So let’s say you have billions of dollars, and you can *invisibly* put money into, or take it out of the market indices.

No matter what the rest of the market did, you could at least create the illusion that nothing was happening.

Ah, you might say, but nobody could do this *invisibly*.

Well, almost nobody. The federal government and the FED can do this, with no one the wiser. Their transactions are invisible.

For much of the last four years, market volatility has been very limited. At times, volume has been relatively tiny, seemingly nobody buying or selling.

But at the same time, tens of billions of dollars of stock has been dumped by people entirely leaving the market. Under any legitimate circumstance, the indices should be half of what they are right now.

Yet the indices just sit there, for the most part. As if somebody with many billions of dollars has been buying up that stock and doing nothing with it.

Why not? After all, it’s not *their* money they are using.

Are companies 'Going Galt'?

They should. When the slaves rebel - their masters starve.

Weepy creepy Boehner needs to send everyone in the House home for Christmas and tell Obama they’ll be back after he is inaugurated. And leave a number where Obama can leave a message.

Obama certainly doesn’t mind that most of the Wall St. tax increases will come out of the hides of Jews. Incredibly, they voted for him and other Democrats as usual, totally disregarding his obvious anti-semitism. Investment houses will soon start to crumble under the hundreds of new regs in the Dodd-Franck bill.

0bama won by attacking businesses and job creators.

I took another 15% of my money out of equities.

I’m sitting this administration out. There will be no investment in the future under 0bama.

Of course they are.

Don't worry, they will be attacked soon, and nationalized.

Philips, Siemens, and GE are all scaling back on their innovation figuring that they can buy that innovation for less than what it would cost them to develop it on their own. Especially in the healthcare field.
