With an hour before the opening bell, Dow Jones Industrial Average futures tumbled 204 points, or 1.8%, to 11,197.

If folks are smart, they'll use this as an opportunity to get into this market. That is if you are fortunate enough to have a job and the ability to invest some extra cash.

ReplyDeleteYou are sorely misguided. The market is clearly a manipulated fixed game.
Invest in commodities. The dollar and the U.S. economy are being crashed right before our eyes. Turn your dollars into the commodities you normally buy with them before the inflation kicks in earnest.
Good luck
Let it happen. This is the best example of what socialism does to a country

ReplyDeleteActually our Country has a Monopoly Capitalist economy. We will soon wish and hope for Socialism to protect us from the evils of a corrupt and greedy Corporate Oligarchy.

ReplyDeleteYou are clueless.
There is no free market in this country. The liberals have been bending and distorting the free market for years. Obama is picking winners and loosers with his Obamacare waivers.
The tax system is designed to punish success and reward stupity and irresposibility.
This is the result.
Wake the heck up!

ReplyDeleteYou and I are saying the same thing. There is no free market. There is a Monopoly market - the ultra rich control competition and stifle it (ie. Walmart, Wawa, etc)
Capitalism leads to monopoly - because the rich don't want to compete with each other. It was the job of the government to look out for the consumer and stop or break up monopolies. The government was taken over by the very corporations who created the monopolies.
It ends in a Corporate Facist Police State - where the government works hand in hand with the corporate facists.
America as we once knew it is gone. It is history.
ReplyDeleteIf my grandfather came back from the dead, he would not even recognize this Country.
The government doesn't give one iota for the average citizen. They have been bribed to look the other way as corporate America manipulates and wrings the last pennies from us. Don't think so? Check your 401(k). How much is the interest on your credit cards? Has ANY election in the last 20-25 years brought any relief to the middle class? Both parties are beholden to special interests. 11:21 is correct --- our country is un- un -un recogizable.
