The big one: When liberals borrow and spend our economy toward an inflationary oblivion, investing in tangibles and commodities like oil and precious metal is the smart play.
Very nice, but most of the “liberal” delusions discussed aren’t the kind of thing one can take a short position in.
I mean I’d love to be able to short any “reform” of American science and math education coming out of DEd or any college of education dominated by Deweyites and Vygotskians (meaning virtually any in the U.S.) so I could profit when the actual effect on science and math known is nil to negative, but I don’t see how.
One can’t short the Chevy Volt, one can only short GM, and if their non-U.S. operations turn a profit, one could easily lose on a short position.
So, all we take from the article as actual investment advice is to watch for financial instruments (like “carbon credits”) based on leftist delusions and short those.
What to have a great career with a guaranteed six figure salary???
1) Start a non profit,special learning ‘center’ for underprivileged and ‘educated challenged’ children with a branch to help the parents teach their children.
2) Lobby the gullible left in the state assemblies for aid to “Help the Kids”
3) Hit up guilty lefties for donations
4) Claim that EVERY kid has some sort of learning disability,Attention deficit issues or , has been ignored by the system thereby justifying children ‘attending ‘ the center.
5) Don’t actually teach the children but hire a bunch of psych majors to preach ‘feel good’ rhetoric.
6) graduate every kid who can’t read,write or do math because of self esteem issues.
7) Plead for more money because there ARE NOT enough resources to Help the Kids.
I’ve seen several of these ‘schools’ in Austin, there are rarely any kids there,they have HUGE staffs, and they are a joke.
*bump*
True, but timing is critical. Bet against it too soon and you lose. Timing the collapse of a bubble is not easy.
I do and I have (see tag line).
Personally, for the past couple of years, I have been betting the government will completely trash the dollar. Made about 50 percent ROI the first year; made about 220 percent last year. Both net after tax.
I'd rather be completely wrong about the idiots in Congress and the Wee Wee, but I figure that in the alternative it doesn't hurt to ease the pain.
I’ve always said liberals need a cause in life, because their own lives aren’t cause enough to live.
My hubbies got to see this article.
During the Clintoon years I developed a simpler way to invest.
Never own a mutual fund nor stock/bonds from any company that is controlled by liberals.
Get out of the stock market, when/before the liberals take over congress like when Pelosi/Reid took over. Go for Gold etfs and Silver etfs that thrive during left wing control. You can buy ETFs that short the Dow like Dog when liberals take over the spending in America.
When liberals are in control of congress, never buy any financial paper/% when it sounds too good to be true. Because it is to good to be true.

An embittered former Senator and Vice President Al Gore is seen here en-route back to prison after a federal appeals court refused to review his 20 year sentence for GROSS HYPOCRICY for his lead role as spokesman in the “Climategate” fraud conspiracy.
The same court recently rejected the appeals of the lengthy sentences of the 137 alleged UN “scientists” – Gore’s co-conspirators – for falsifying data supporting so-called Cap and Trade legislation that trial testimony disclosed would have virtually destroyed what remained of the U.S. economy while unjustly enriching Gore and a cabal of insiders.
During his trial, Gore was notified by the Nobel Committee that he would have to return the large monetary prize and the gold metal awarded him in 2009. He told reporters that the last of his prize money and the 100 million or so he’d bilked from taxpayers while running his scam had gone to the lawyers and Tipper pawned his medal when she left him for an achondroplastic dwarf NBA center and filed for divorce after his conviction.
Obamacare is a scam. However, the Bee Colony Collapse syndrome and flesh-eating bacteria are real. I'm not sure how much the media hypes those (given the media's propensity to exaggerate), but they are the subjects of much research right now. A couple other environmental problems right now are the white nose disease killing off bats, and various factors killing frogs.
Just remember that often the market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.
Interesting article. Unfortunately I think most of the time liberal delusions aren’t something you can make money off of, instead they end up wrecking the country’s economy. The only thing you can do is combat the insanity behind the delusions and try to salvage what you can.
BTTT!
