I thought maybe when our market tanked our government stepped in and bought stocks too in order to prop up the numbers. Would this be possible and I think it should be looked in to?

It is no secret. The Fed has been giving the big banks $87 billion a month to buy stocks. They used to give volume numbers with the market reports. Anyone but me noticed they stopped about the same time as this began? Our politicians have been playing Kabuki Theater for decades. Now our markets are, too.
