Commodities, Cap and Trade and Natural Gas [View article]
Your last statement about less greed and about wanting it now....maybe we should seriously look every other person in the eye and say its time to rein in the congressional people who want to give us everything. You say we need forethought for our grandchildren. Part of that should be some reasonalbe pay as we go. You want to do all these things for them and then leave them a staggering bill?
There is an inference in the authors article that we could shut down coal plants and start natural gas. Do that and figure out how demand drives the price of natural gas in a few years let alone the future reduction in gas reserves.

The biggest thing about ACORN is that it has no transparency and one wonders if it ever will. With all the controversy around the organization one would think they would want an investigation to clear the air.
If you read factcheck reasonably carefully a definite bias can be observed. Wait a while and we may be able to decern the truth.

When considering borrowing one should also look at the probable coming inflation cycle. If that be the case it may be very wise to borrow now since we can assume interest rates will climb considerably in the future. Wouldn't you rather have borrowed now. Maybe a borrowed cash stockpile can become part of a cash cow.

Stewart vs. Cramer: Long-Term Asset Allocation Incorrectly Maligned [View article]
Come on bluenose. Yes many facits of journalism and the bankers have faults in this mess. You need to remember the real bad guys are those in Washington making some statement to assure their re-election rather than talking in the interest of the public. They have by the largest contribution to this financial mess. With the help of the press they have diverted the attention to others. And the public in general has no blame?
There is a problem when anyone says GLD added gold. The transfers of gold cannot be and has not been verified or observed it just magically happens. There is no audit of the gold. So is it a paper transaction such as a derivative, a loan? What makes this an honest investment that does not make one think of Madoff?

There is much talk about the adding of gold to the GLD etf. This gold should be traceable through the COMEX. I cannot find the transfers nor to my knowledge can anyone else. So that leaves leasing or paper transactions. Do we really want to deal with a fund that infers they have gold when it appear to be an illusion?
There are no provisions for an audit of the gold.
This fund is apparently controlled by the same big bankers in need of a baleout.
And then we have Madoff and others. So my mind wanders to what happens in a crisis.
Dave: You made the comment for Rick Santelli to go get them. I think Rick made a good start but he cannot be the lone voice. How do we get more voices, particularily TV commentators, to keep the drum roliing?
The comments above forget the balance/counterbalance of the elected system. What were the house and senate finance committees doing all this time? As far as I can see it they almost acknowledged the problems but did nothing until there was a failure. Fannie and Freddie got attention by default. The current crisis was sitting out in the open for quite some time. Any half intelligent person could see the problem coming but it got shelved until it has become near out of hand. Question for those with political statement s is why is your man not also culpable.
Its easy to blame Bush but I think Franks and Waxman are both do nothings until it hits the fan. Then they, along with many others, go into political gear. Its time the country evolved by working on long term policy for economic, energy and other issues to dovetail into good public policy. To of ten there is an emergency of the day or week etc

Mia - pay attention to the market. Some people like to wait until the move has established some type of trend. This stops some of the whiplash. Any prediction by anyone including yourself should be subject to modification. If you got out on the last bad fall of stock prices it was wise since nobody had any idea of how far the market was to drop. Cramer is just saying it appears the market for these stocks will go up.
Cramer makes mistakes but he also gives you a valid method of thinking with some guidance. You need to do the homework for yourself.
