  1. So, I’m a fiscal conservative, I admit it.

    I used to believe in free markets just like the next guy, still do with a bit more oversight.

    Still believe that the financial markets have some predictive power. Also believe people with a lot of money to invest tend to be fiscal conservatives, not Tea Party types. Rational thinkers about the future of their money.

    The Tea Party types say Health Care Reform will bankrupt America. Turn us into a bunch of socialists.

    What do the markets have to say?

    Bill passed Sunday afternoon.

    DJIA up 44 points Monday.
    DJIA up another 102 today.
    Say 1.5%, give or take?

    If health care reform was the end of the US as a free society, you’d think you’d see a drop of ten or twenty percent. Guess those Wall Street investors are dumber than we think. Unless…

  2. Pete, Thank you, dear. I have no idea why they taunt me so!

    I LOVE NUTELLA! I can’t keep it in the house! But I do not eat it on english muffins. I prefer to eat it straight out of the jar!!
