    The Big 3: Paulson’s A HORRIBLE Trader, Volatile Markets Volatility, Fear the Financial New World Order

    1. Paulson’s A HORRIBLE Trader

    2. Volatile Markets Volatility

    3. Fear the Financial New World Order

    1. I’m just going to remind you guys that Hank Paulson, our Treasury Secretary, thought that it was a great use of his Goldman shareholders’ money to spend tens of billions buying GS stock when it was more than 3x higher than today’s price. This is the guy you all believed when he said he could save you.

    2. Remember the last few times the stock market rallied after making intraday moves that used to take an entire year? That’s right. It wasn’t sustainable. Volatility begets only more volatility and usually lower prices in the intermediate term.

    3. Bush told us today that we need smaller government if we want a better economy and higher markets in the long run. Call the biggest government leaders of the world together and go behind closed doors to plan a New World Order and change all the systems you and I have been believing in. We rockers see right through all you free-market principle posers.

I think plan by FDIC will do more than Paulson giving money to everyone. It has accountability and will help some homeowners stay in their homes.

We must not as a nation forget the role the high cost of our dependence on foreign fuel played in the demise of our automakers. The exorbitant cost of gas the past year has done serious damage to our economy and society. We need to take lessons from our mistakes.WE also need to get out from under the grip our dependence on fore gin oil has on us. Why not take some of these billions and invest in America becoming energy independent. Driving an electric car would cost the equivalent of 60 cents a gallon. The electricity could be generated by solar or wind power. Green technology would create millions of badly needed new jobs. What America needs is a green revolution. It is time for us to move forward with alternative energy. I just read Jeff Wilson's new book The Manhattan Project of 2009. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is concerned about the downward spiral of our economy and it's effect on our society and would like to see our country become energy independent!

It seems to me If the big 3 automakers when bankrupt, all of the technolgy, work force, plants, dealer networks etc. would still be in place @ they could clean up their balace sheets, renogotiate labor contracts @ then they would have a more level playing field. Then the governments loans @ perhaps for 12 months offer a $2500.00 tax credit to anyone purchasing one of there vehicles. Does this make sense to anyone besides me?
