      The Shallowest Generation
      Kelly Bkk, Of course the Greatest Generation created Social Security and Medicare/Medicade and you would be a fool not to admit that these programs haven’t done a great deal of good. Granted that they are becoming a problem but in your apparent infinite wisdom why haven’t you suggested a solution to them? Tell us what you suggest to replace them or shall we let many old retired people starve and die They were created with the premise that if you paid a part of your earnings into a government program the government would invest it or whatever and you would have something to help you live in your old age. We didn’t foresee our devious politicians robbing it and using it to pay for everything else they could think of. And I don’t have to remind you of how many modern day leaches have found out ways to live off of Medicare/Medicade which was created to help those that sincerely need help.

      I am an old fart who belongs to the Greatest Generation and I may not agree with everything in the main article but it generally describes the facts as they are.

      I might add that the Boomers have been raising their kids with the same mentality as theirs. Young kids can’t ride a school bus to school, they have to drive a new car (not an older one, God forbid); etc, etc, etc. And my apologies to the minority of Boomers it doesn’t apply to. Many of the Boomer generation have good sense.

      Everyone recognizes the human nature to defend ones faults however wrong. Apparently you’ve succumbed to that problem.

      Another Bloodbath?
      WOW !! This article really lit a fire under everyone!

      Gabe. Bless you, I would wish you were right but I think we're still in for a bunch of hurt.

      We can thank our hurt on the slime on Wall Street and in Washington. I'm talking about the fat cats on Wall St. (Not the everyday grunts like you and me that work there) and our self-serving congress. Neither of them feels badly over the situation because they're still living high on the hog and will continue to throughout and after this crisis. And what facinates me is that the American public will vote the same self-servers right back into congress. Wait and see!

      Daytrader hit it on the nose: THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT ANYONE BUT THIER LOUSY,STINKING,SELVES.

      I've been an optimist my entire life but it's beginning to wear on me. Excluding the slimes mentioned above, the United States is still the greatest country in the world and it's Main Street that makes it that way.

      aCBOEtrader: Thanks for your comment! I wish more market makers and floor traders would comment on the "goings-on" and their opinions. To my way of thinking; who knows more about it?

      Options Trader: Friday Outlook
      Phil,

      I access your column because it's listed under "Options." I think your political observations are interesting but I would really like some insight on options. Some while back you gave some opinions on options which I thought were excellent.

      Can you give us some options opinions now and then?

      Don

      Stocks Are the Place to Be - Google and Apple in Particular
      I agree with magman and John Egan; Mark Hines is giving his opinion of the market, etc. and everyone has the right to their opinion. If you don't agree with his then let's hear yours but there is little reason to be rude and knock someone else because you don't agree with him.

      Most people log onto these blogs to read and perhaps to find interesting news or advice. If you don't like his viewpoints then don't read it.
