Rising Global Food Prices: Trading Guns for Butter

Ah, Mary. Your Democrat stripes really came through w/ that last line/diatribe. Firstly, Bush doesn't run the govt., the Congress does. And the Congress is comprised of primarily spineless toadys, on both sides, that do as their told by lobbyists, the most powerful of which is the banking sector. Secondly, the most likely economic scenario is due to both Reps and Dems unwillingness to face reality, and institute an energy policy that could have already put us in a position of near energy indepencence. When nothing changed after the late '70's oil embargo, rationing, etc., it should have been clear that the tough choices were never going to be made by the politcal leadership of either party. But let me guess, you're going to vote for whatever Dem candidate, regardless of their demonstrated propensity for socialist programs and politically expedient pandering, right? I can't wait till Obama is elected, and can short the market across the board, with an almost 100% probability of great returns for the next few years.

The bears are less exhausted than some might think. Range trading is boring, but .5%-1% per day profit adds up quick. When the spindoctors' spiel finally gets blown out, and reality is driven into the bull's face, us bears are gonna eat some lunches.
Love your reports, David! It's my favorite read on SA.
