Re: Was there some bad economic news this week?

"Started last month Jerry!" I must have missed the President's press conference. On the stock market, I guess if continues to crash, it will have to start a growth cycle at some point. My poor 201K isn't hitting on much these days. Fortunately, I moved most of my money out of anything risky.

"It's the deficit that's funding the corporations! Ain't something you heard about during the election!" So, if I understand you, Obama has fed the corporations more than any other President recent memory, including the hated W. if so, it's almost like he's a tool of big business, particularly

If you also list the job gains, and graph them against increases in Corporate Profits that would be very worthwhile! :-) Corporate profits are back up to almost the levels they were pre 2008. Yet hiring is still down, and wages are still down. On 10 November 2012 22:52, Jerry Barnes wrote: >

Actually, years ago I asked a friend why they always have projects near the super wealthy mansions. I was told it was a law that for x amount of $ million plus houses they had to have affordable living for the workers so they didn't have to be bused in. Don't know if its true but I do know for a f

Since they voted and the rich stayed home I'm guessing your right. A lot of servants in those counties. But since the counties represent inherited money you could be wrong. The Kerry and Theresa types love to vote for Democrats. . On Fri, Nov 9, 2012 at 1:21 PM, William Bowen wrote: > >> Did yo
