    Not to mention CNBC is getting bullish, too. Quick, short the SPY!

    Not a convenient point to this argument. I get it.

    And by clean them up you mean increase their rolls? I see your logic.

    Oh... so that must explain why welfare, food stamps, and unemployment benefits are at all time highs under the helm of a Democrat.

    Correct. So just because exports aren't terrible (yet), what about slowing GDP, slowing manufacturing, increased government spending (just so they're "doing something"), increasing vacancies in an already over-supplied housing market that's in a bubble... Just because the data within a single point isn't forming a trend doesn't mean that numerous red flags in other data aren't creating a trend.

    Control over the poor is obtained by making them dependent... with programs like SS and Medicare, government housing, food stamps, unemployment benefits (such an ironic title)... If they are the provider, you are at their mercy. Strangely enough and surely by mere coincidence, these programs are the workings of Democrats over the years. But those evil Republicans...

    Gentle tweak of our tax code? We need major surgery. Take what we have and toss it. Start again.

    This constant "tweaking" is what created this massive tax code we have today. Loophole here, special write off there... plus, we aren't tweaking anything, because by definition that would mean improvement, something that politicians have a hard time understanding.

    Our current tax code would be better off as a boat anchor, or starter material for a massive bonfire of "tweaks" from every area the government touches.

    Sure... since politicians have a great record of fixing things.

    Investors will eventually get tired of loaning us money at such cheap rates considering we blow money frivolously on a regular basis. Bad investments, corrupt politicians, pandering on the taxpayers dime... all this will catch up eventually. TBT or TMV are the safest bets in the market over the long term. Too bad they don't pay dividends with a DRiP.

    Burden shared by all Americans... well, except the half that don't pay a thing.
