The number of working Americans is shrinking which means their ability to stave off the final liquidation of the United States is constantly being diminished.
Thank you. Stated far better than I did.

I think you forget what all we did in late 2008 and early 2009.

It's not all about me.

I support capital investments. What I don't support is paper shuffling and creating artificial bubbles.

We are not investing in capital.

Buy and hold. Make consistent investments over time. It is really that simple. You should do that with or without QE. Yes, once QE begins it has to be reduced slowly.

Yes, you are investing in capital. Your return on the investment is not entirely related to how well that company you invested in is doing. The value is too dependent on actions of government. However, I will not cut off my nose to spite my face. I will try to maximize my wealth under the current social contract.

You seem to not-grasp the difference in personal investing strategy and national economic policy.

These links do not tell us that Republicans aren't bought and paid for by corporate america.

They just state what everyone already know about Hillary Clinton.
