how many lattes have you had this week?
How can you say with any seriuosness at all that the American middle class does not receive any of this wealth you speak of? even the poorest American is better off than a huge number pf people around the world. Wake up to reality, life is not a cakewalk, America is the land of opportunity, not the land of guaranteed wealth. |

U.S. stocks finished the week slightly higher, while the markets recovered from yesterday's sharp losses with a strong day today. September's retail sales were surprisingly strong, during a month in which they are traditionally weak due to the end of back-to-school sales. General Electric reported better-than-expected, third-quarter earnings results, and the company assured investors that fourth-quarter numbers will also be in line with current estimates. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 77.96 points (+0.56 percent), closing at 14,093.08, while the NASDAQ Composite increased 33.48 points (+1.21 percent), finishing at 2,805.68. Oh boy! Big trouble for little America, "My *ss" How can you expect to get anywhere in life as long as you exhibit your ignorance and stupidity? Do some research. Socialism is the refuge of the slothful, uninformed and lazy intellect. |
