One thing to remember about "City Democrats", they wanted a landmark to
replace the eastern span of the Bay Bridge. That took 25 years with
people driving across the old span praying an earthquake wouldn't hit.
They could have replaced that span in 5 years after Loma Prieta (Los
Angeles wouldn't have dallied around). Now that we have "the world's
most expensive bridge" which raised bridge tolls to ridiculous amounts
we find that even it isn't all that safe.

Bhairitu,
I can't afford that kind of political activity. But I'm sure she'll
have much attention from the City Democrats, including the LGBT crowd
here. It's going to be a road show. Watch for it on the news.

Judy,
The guvmint needs to find an alternative to the Fed's "quantitative
easing" or reducing the interest rate which is getting stale and
ineffective.

The "panic," John, is pretty much over. (But I have to laugh at the
notion that the promise of a tax rebate would stop a persistent stock
market panic.)

Judy,
I'm not going against Alan Greenspan's observations. Actually, if
the stock market tanks substantially, I might go back in the market
again. Also, to stop the panic, the government should try Dubya
Bush's tactic many years ago. That's to give a tax rebate to the
people --a less expensive option than the Swiss guaranteed income for
all its citizen.

The markets are already beginning to stabilize. It's silly to panic
over day-to-day fluctuations, even big ones like this (especially if
you don't have money in the stock market!).
Far more concerning, IMHO, is the sudden substantial increase in hate
crimes against immigrants in Britain after the Brexit vote.

Easier said than done, especially if you don't have any money
invested in stocks. Next, the Fed would probably cut the interest
rate. But it's already near 0 percent now. So, cutting the interest
rate would probably not stop the downfall.

If you take the long view, what happens this week in the markets is
really not a big deal.
