I wouldn't go investing big right now - the economy is displaying some very weird properties.
For one, the economy is going up without any jobs, and not many people have any idea what is happening.
My thinking is that the economy will eventually partially implode because without the jobs that big bubble is going to pop.
Where are the jobs going? Why, CEOs paying themselves 60 million a year. That's about 4,000 jobs that pay 15,000 a year salary. Outsourcing, schmoutsourcing. Although this is a somewhat radical idea that would never get past the government because of so much rich people influence, a salary cap law would create a lot more jobs in America. Say you can only earn 5 million dollars a year combined. Suddenly, so many more companies have 50 million dollars coming back in. Might as well do something with it.
Oh, and on that Bush attack ad that trys to hurt Kerry about the 50 cents/gallon law he voted for....
He voted for that bill roughly 20 years ago and says he doesn't support it now. And Kerry voting to raise taxes 350 times? BULLSH*T!
Here's there official list, as seen on the GOP website:
http://commrnc.grassroots.com/resources/KerryVotesForHigherTaxes.pdf
You can go for pages without actually finding a vote for higher taxes. So many of them are for tax cuts that just weren't as low as Republicans wanted. So many are for repealing tax cuts. Those aren't raises.
And Hydra: you fail to remember how great an economic genius Clinton was. He created 23 million jobs, and created the biggest surpluses in history. And Bush comes, and turns the biggest surpluses into the biggest deficits.
"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Theodore Roosevelt (1918)
"The danger to political dissent is acute where the Government attempts to act under so vague a concept as the power to protect "domestic security." Given the difficulty of defining the domestic security interest, the danger of abuse in acting to protect that interest becomes apparent. --U.S. Supreme Court decision (407 U.S. 297 (1972)
