Looking at the economy, from what is nearby me, I see many people out of work, losing their homes, on food stamps and their unemployment running out.
Those who are praising Obama for the "improved" economy, aren't considering the average American worker. CEO's and companies are making record profits, which unfortunately aren't helping those Americans who need jobs. Companies cut workers and spending and found they can make more $$$ for themselves. So the Dow hit 15,000, that hasn't helped my neighbor who has been out of work for 2 years.
How'd THAT work out for you?
You've been spouting the same silly nonsense since the stock market recovery began in 2009 - during which time the DOW has more than DOUBLED - erasing ALL the loses from the crash and once again at all-time highs (and despite claims of folks like you, the dollar has NOT collapsed, nor WILL it collapse).
You DO know that you are looking increasingly silly and irrelevant don't you?
If you don't, you SHOULD.
I'm sure glad I don't take financial advice from YOU.

Let us be real here and understand what is good for Wall Street is not always good for the working man. Yes, I am glad my 401K is up. I cannot find any reason to believe anything done in Washington is the reason for it. Would someone tell me what specific Obama policies has led to the stock market rise.
but the obozo liar in charge in the whitehouse is about to send us into another depression....
hmmm
I hope many feel that way who invest. I really don't like buying high.
Newsflash: Corp earnings are awesome, our GDP is growing, while Europe's is falling, our corps balance sheets are super strong. In short, it would be easy to make a case the DJ stock prices are a bit low as of now. All indicators look at minimum, good.
it was the spike in gas prices that caused the collapse of the economy. and the gas price spike was caused by manipulation in the oil commodities markets.
