    Dow back over 13,000, the employment figures aren’t great, but going the opposite direction from at the end of “W” era. Republicans in the House and Senate, and their friends in “business” have spent the last three plus years doing everything possible to slow any recovery, but, oh well.

    Ignore the job numbers, he says for the 40 somethingth time. It worked, he said. All the lefties above are drinking the kool aid and listening to the rest of the lies they’re told or just regurgitating the same garbage that they always say. Pitiful really.

    In the middle east, they also have trickle down economics, but they express it differently: Alms for the poor.

    Sold some silver a couple months ago, the price was finally back up over what it was some 25 years ago when the Hunt brothers played games. Gold price represents INFLATION, NOT investment. The Dow SHOULD represent investment, but it really doesn’t, and it IS up over 13,00, which is actually higher than the rest of the economy and GDP would “project”.

    Unemployment figures are just “figures can lie, and liars can figure”. Watching sales reports, which are UP overall, indicates that there IS more expendable income, being used, but not by the “uber-wealthy” who actually impact production, and spending on commodities, very little. Jobs depend on the “every day” purchases we make, not yachts, big mansions, or Ferraris.

    Coming from a guy who fled this country to sit alone in the woods. Yep, plenty of credibility there.

    Trickle Down: another name for Golden Showers? Sorry, I don’t swing that way.

    OK, here is another one, who apparently assumes he knows more about the USA than the rest of us!

    What happened to Obama’s jobs bill? Oh yeah, the GOP blocked it. Do they think we’ll forget?
