Do you really think that with a tax cut business would create jobs in THIS COUNTRY? Tax cuts worked in the past in the era before companies sent their factories overseas. It does not seem that a tax rate cut would offset the pull of cheaper costs elsewhere.

It would really help if business management would state that they rehire those laid off if they received a rate reduction. Right now we only hear from politicians and we know how reliable they are.

US President Barack Obama (2nd-R) fist bumps with Marvin Nicholson (2nd-L) as he palys golf with Eric Whitaker (L) and Cyrus Walker at Farm Neck Golf Club in Oak Bluffs on Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts, on August 26, 2010. The US First Family is vacationing on the Island until August 29.

Sure hope that this is not a sign of things to come...but not that hopeful. This may become the high-point of the market for the next few years with this administration. Hopefully, the November elections will provide enough hope to change the markets...

Watch out for the manufacturing numbers next week. If they’re bad, that would go a long way towards confirming the fears of a double-dip recession.

Foreclosures up
Unemployment numbers barely changed
Manufacturing down
Credit still tight
Tax cuts expire soon

Summer of recovery marches on! /sarc

Yes, but of course there are other pro-American Business steps to be taken, please share your ideas far and wide, and our security has been very reliable over other countries, minus what McCain and the amnesty crowd are trying to do

Looks like the Plunge Protection Team did indeed lose control of the Dow.

The PPT cannot lose control until after the election, at which time they can let things go down in steps.

However, if you are right and they have lost control now, then things are far worse than we're being told.

In normal recessions — the argument goes — an increase in discretionary government spending is unnecessary and even counterproductive. But in the event that a recession becomes a depression, a Keynesian stimulus package might work.

The Democrat Economist should have know this about Keynesian economic theory, therefore, like the JournaList, let me introduce to you;

the Econolist

Transcript of Pelosi, House Democratic Leaders, and Economists’ Press Conference Following Economic Forum
http://www.speaker.gov/newsroom/pressreleases?id=1414

Speaker Pelosi.
“I am pleased that we had the benefit of the thinking of Dr. Mark Zandi, Dr. Alan Blinder, Bob Kuttner, Heather Boushey, Bill Hambrecht, and Allen Sinai.”

add Christina Romer and Paul Krugman. Did I miss any other Democrat economist?

WH Advisor Jared Bernstein, Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, National Economics Council chief Larry Summers and the rest of his economics team

The EconoList, similar to the JournaList...

Not to mention Fannie and Freddie as insolvent and will need another few hundred billion just to stay afloat.
