*STOCK ALERT* *DOW DOWN 300 POINTS in 30 mins*

The more and more I think about the stock market, and how it just fluctuates every single day.. It has totally lost it's point. That must be the problem all these politicians are having... What is the answer? How do you fix something that is completely broken?

Really no easy answers.

Um ... no.

We need Washington to stop spending money on moronic things. There is no reason to steal more money from the American taxpayer simply because Washington wants to spend more and more. Quit spending on stupid things ... useless things .... get the spending priorities correct ..

There is NO NEED to raise taxes.

Think of it this way if the market is stable -- speculators don't make money -- money is made as the market goes up and down. Feed the outrage feed the fears and the market swings - the computerized trading just harvests money.
