Conservatives generally have no sense of economic and finance. They screamed we were heading for a Japanese stagflation in 2009, if anyone had listened to those idiots he/she would have missed one of the best stock/housing boom in generations.
All you have to do to beat the market, is listen to what conservative pundits are saying about the economy, and then invest in the opposite direction.
.
Yeah, that's why we aren't the typical democrat voting layabouts on welfare pumping out babies like a puppy mill. Liberals want to hate on the wealthy 1% and assume them to all be conservatives which makes them "the enemy".
Kinda shoots down your empty statement, right?

Missed out on the best boom and BUST you mean. LMAO yea more should have invested in the housing scam . Now you're thinking.
Why since the stock market is doing so well guess those companies are going to have plenty of high paying jobs right. Huh strange how that hasn't happened.
It surprises me anyone not in the top 10% of wealth votes Republican. The Republican party has been the part for the rich for decades. They have never cared about the poor except to employ them in low paying jobs nobody else will do. Why there are poor Republicans baffles me.
Democrats love the poor so much they want to make us all poor.
Where do white males who work for a living go but the Republican Party?
We are certainly not welcome in the Democrat Party.
How can the unemployment be at 5% when there is massive layoffs and closings happening nearly everyday of the month? Go look here
If the economy is doing so well why didn't the interest rate get raised? As a matter of fact they are looking to go with negative interest rates!! If that happens banks can TAKE a percentage of YOUR MONEY out of your account!!

Yeah, meanwhile the Dems raise taxes and make it harder and harder to survive by giving away freebies to the unproductive.

Delusion is one of the reasons.
Just look at Joe the Plumber. Makes $40k a year, thinks he is getting killed because Obama raises taxes on people making $250k or more.

This brings up another shortcoming of most conservatives - an inability to think logically. This could be a reason why they don't seem to grasp economics, which requires an ability to understand abstract concept driven by data.
At any rate, how much money someone makes has very little correlation to how well someone understand economics. I know plenty of people making six-figure salary who doesn't know the definition of a recession.
In fact, take a look at the Republican nominees - Bush and McCain, rich men but knew squad about the economy. Wealth and economic knowledge do not go hand in hand.
Furthermore, it's silly to say that liberals hate on the 1% when blue states are always among the richest states in the nation. The rich in blue states tend to vote Democrats, the rich in red states tend to vote Republicans.

I invested in housing from 2010-12 when ALL the conservatives were saying this baby was heading for a bottom. Rush Limbaugh and Fox News were yelling, "This ship is sinking!! We are going down!!!"
I love it. All the frightened Rushheads stayed out of the market and gave me an opportunity to snap up properties at bargain basement prices. I wish Obama hadn't been so good in righting the ship so I could have more time to add to my porfolio.
Anyway,you were saying?

I told you conservatives have no understanding of the economy. When does stock prices = creating high paying jobs?
The high paying jobs will come as the economy gets even better. They are not driven by stock prices.
