It has been for decades, for me, and will continue to be for as the world turns, the market only moves in one direction on a long term basis and that direction is up! It has been, is, and will continue to be the case, and along with that trend the opportunity of "easier living" and the contentment of financial security will be a convincing factor for most that the Forefathers had the right idea emphasizing personal freedoms and if you feel that we haven't continued that focus through world changes then my friend you are lost to the American way.
