The Dow dropped 998 points in a matter of minutes last Thursday. How could that happen? Barack Obama and the Democrats are in charge here. What did Wall Street do wrong? At first it was the FAT FINGER. Some yoyo over there at Wall & Broad hit the B button (billion), instead of the M button (million) for shares to be traded. Sure! Except they now know that wasn't what happened.
Next it was terrorism- a nefarious cyber-attack! But later this weekend that was discarded!
The White House's homeland security and counterterrorism adviser says there is no evidence that a cyber attack was behind the chaos that shook Wall Street last Thursday. John Brennan said that officials have uncovered no links suggesting that cyber attacks caused turbulence that sent the Dow Jones industrials plunging almost 1,000 points before staging a partial recovery at the end of the day.
What in the world could have been the cause? How about YOU, our political leaders!
Could it be the systemic deficit spending, the lack of a sound fiscal policy, unbridled social economic euphoria (can you say national health plan?), and general attitude that the United States government can solve ALL problems? Is there any doubt that government (any one) wants to control the lives of the populace? Is there any doubt that the high sounding rhetoric, broadly generalized romantic ideality, and utopian humanitarianism is doomed for failure? Can you not see that we as a nation are headed to anarchy and major civil unrest?
Can you say Arizona? Can you also mention illegal immigration?
America is entering the proverbial "ark night of the soul". May 6th was just a precursor that opened the door into the back alley of desperation and the coming realization that the powers that be are selling you and I and everyone else further down the food chain, down the river (otherwise known as the sewer). The tensions are building and much like the web bot linguistics have been showing for many moons now, the July 4th celebration will probably open the door to a far more violent demonstration just days later.
America is naked and those who have disrobed us are in trouble!
