    Investors having unrealized gains will sell those stocks in order to preserve the 15% tax rate on their gains as opposed to paying 30% after Barack takes office. The massive sell / buy imbalance will produce a sell off that will rival Black Monday in '87...I'm not such an alarmist that I think we'll revisit '29, but you never know.[/QUOTE]

    I based my response to your comments on the above. No worries, just trying to be fair

    No doubt it has improved dramitically since he took over. Now if we can only avoid the "double dip" that everyone is worried about.

    I am definitely pulling for him and our country.

          That's a terrible comeback, it's like saying why don't you move to Hawaii. Have you ever even been Europe?

                              No Jordan, I have typos and mispellings all the time. But I also don't claim to be the resident,board genius. Some people are just whiny little bitches and they claim to want to have discussions but don't have the ability to do so unless you agree with them completely. They can cut and paste with the best of them though. Then throw their stones if someone doesn't bow down to their self-proclaimed expertise in everything.
