Did you actually read this, or are you assuming that just because the markets are right back where they were 5 1/2 years ago, that everything's all right? Most of the "prescriptions" being offered by the politicians are very similar to that tried in 1930, debt at all levels is completely out of control, and ALL of Clinton's taxes are still slated to return in full force in 2011.
The only "good" news is that the rest of the world is in even worse shape.
Ironically, I feel less secure with the markets going up than I did with them going down. I guess with them going down, they were at least acknowledging the problems.
