That would encourage more long term investment.
I think I would but an extra tax on any financial instrument that was
kept less than a month to make flash trading less attractive.

let's get one thing straight

we dont need more INVESTMENT

we need more CONSUMPTION.

although investment is a form of consumption, ONLY MIDDLE CLASS
CONSUMPTION can pull us out of the depression

and wall street is NOT gonna let that happen

You can't get consumption without jobs and the only way we get that is
by expansion. It is clear the stimulus money just went into rich
people's pockets and not much actually got invested in expanded
industry. (thanks for a "no stimulus" stimulus bill)

There are plenty of stim projects underway, even if you don't believe
it or think they're working. They are working. We need more of them.

Name 10 of them.

LOL! It's a joke... I won't hold my breath.

When I look at the ones around here they are the same projects that we
would expect the government to kick in money into ... FROM OUR GAS
TAXES.
We are sending 38 cents a gallon off to DC and they dribble about half
of it back to us. That is not stimulus, it is government as usual.


Well, this is typical isn't it. Someone points to an actual fact-based
site, and Greg ignores it in favor of rhetoric.

Government consumes wealth. Lucky you are getting much back at all.
