Via Yahoo News ^ | February 19th | Silicon Valley Insider

Government help = kiss of death. The NASDAQ Relief Index, which tracks companies that have taken government is now down 50% since its inception... which was earlier this year. But remember, we're going to profit from in the long run. Oh wait, maybe they don't bother saying that anymore.

Alea captured the chart, which as they say, is a swan dive.

I think we must accept this fact: Obama is determined to ruin our economy. Until we realize that this is his goal, we will not be able to survive.

Assuming the above... now what do we do?

I think you’ve got it pegged perfectly, Reagan69. And with his ‘cures’ along the way he intends to overload the system in a manner that would make Alinsky proud. The solution is the global leveling that will make him achieve what Bill Clinton wasn’t able to—first emperor of the united socialist planet.

(Unless of course the voters really wake up by next year.)

Isn’t it frustrating the amount of really useful/inciteful information that just gets left out of liberal media reporting...............

*sigh*
