The broader Standard & Poor's 500 index fell 34 points, to 2.4%, to 1,395. The Nasdaq was down 70 points, or 2.3%, to 2,942.

Obama and his progressive cabal treat the red areas of the states as colonies, to exploit and control. Obama has criticized colonialism abroad, but he is in fact an imperialist at home.

On New Year's day and after, we all need to wear our protective headgear to avoid being injured by the falling stock market.
