Great info/posts, guys; Thanks Jah, bouligny, cravenraven, for all those good info and links.
You are right, Hugo: ( I, too, am suffering from shock and depression over the Obama win);
but how long can that once great country continue to run trillion dollar deficits, and rob the hard working taxpayers to pay for the idealists, socialists, deadbeats, and welfare recipients? That is why the markets got clobbered today.so as those groups continue to breed up their numbers, then another 5 years worth of new voters might put Obama in again?
The last ten years have not been very profitable for the little hopeful investors, because the big boys in New York, Chicago, London, and company brass are the ones that profit (they have the info before us). We are "dreaming" away our life savings, i think.
