What happened. It is all gone in the stock market. Now without money. The balance gone in more secure Mutual funds. Now wish to turn in to the old saving system. Bank. But no money to save.http://investmentandmoney.blogspot.com

Chuck Baldwin, Presidential candidate of the Constitution Party, says, "The only way to fix this economic mess that the international bankers have created is to return America to sound money principles, as prescribed in the U.S. Constitution. This means dismantling the Federal Reserve and the Internal Revenue Service, overturning the 16th Amendment and the personal income tax, and returning the American monetary system to hard assets: gold and silver. Anything short of this will only delay and worsen the inevitable collapse that has already begun." --- Neither Obama or McCain have the balls to do what is right!

Yeah, right, the money is just is just a "fallacy". You're wrong! You had the money in an IRA or 401K and it was worth a certain figure until money managers and hedge funds sold out the maket by 40% making your loss their profit. Why do you think the pundits tell you not to panic and sell? Someone's ******* selling!!! And it's someone that is a lot smarter with trading than the average person.

In my town, there is a major tourist destination theme park. Lately the place is PACKED! Traffic is snarled with huge SUV's and F350 diesel dually trucks. Major chain expensive restaurants are PACKED. Don't give me this recession crap. It is election year hysteria designed to get Obama elected. DON"T BUY THE HYPE!

For those ready to stop panicking and ready to take the opportunity to buy low now. It will be people like you who save the market. The smart. The cool headed. The blind panickers, The chicken littles are those who would be responsible if they cause another great depression. Do we want our American companies snapped up by foreign investors? Do you want your company to be owned by China or Saudi or any other country? Don't look to politicians to fix the market. It is up to the American people to start shouldering some responsibility. If you can think clearly there has never been a better opportunity to buy stocks so low. In time the market will recover, IF people stop being stupid and selling off at huge losses. How do you make money that way?

Do you remember Bush wanting to allow Americans to put their Social Security Taxes into stocks instead? Where would you be if they had allowed for this....at least now you will have a retirement payment where as if this fiasco had been implemented you wouldn't. Pray for America ..... do the right thing and treat others with respect.... we may yet survive this mess.....
