This ought to be interesting reading.


How the market works...

The little investor, typically, gets screwed in many different ways,
while the brokerage houses rip off the buyers and sellers.


Tell me where the unions invest their pension funds? Mattresses? Tin
cans buried in the back yard? Stuffed in boxes in basements?


there are no unions in the US.

Certainly there are, they cover teachers,

7% of american workers are covered by unions. there are no unions in
the US. as the 'economist' magazine pointed out last month, the US has
the most anti-union work environment of 30 industrialized countries


And that is a good thing.


Since 1950 the unions have succeded in two areas, corruption and killing
jobs.


and how did wall street do in the last 3 years? number of jobs
created? none.

pay increases to the middle class? none

unemployment? 8,000,000 jobs lost

thanks wall street!


About 90,000,000 jobs. And think, the taxpayer didn't pay for any of them.

More like 20,000,000 but who is counting.

How many jobs did GM bailout create? Zero. They were long gone jobs.
Plenty a UAW/CAW out of work. Because people didn't need nor want their
over priced crap. So keep a GM, loose a Ford job...corruption.

Unions need a leash.

TARP that you hate.
