Ah.

so in your .... expert... opinion on global finance, any time it went down it was Obama's fault, but if it goes up it isn't because of anything he did?

I'm pretty sure things have been going up significantly the past couple years... and for the record, I think I read gas was down 0.40$... that's not a ton, but it's something.

Your are putting words in my mouth

What i said is what i meant..]] And International business was one of my minors in school and i follow international politics very closely for decades and my Parrot can sing !

Jack. You want to talk International Business, feel free. You haven't yet. Just saying "it's not because of anything OBama did" isn't actually providing an argument. Just like every time you've blamed him for the economy going down you haven't bothered providing a scrap of evidence why it was his fault then (despite being in the office a very short time) while it isn't his fault now (despite having been in the office 6 years).

And International Business was one of my minors in GRADUATE school. that doesn't make my argument any stronger. Evidence supporting an argument stronger. At this point a parrot has more evidence.

The point is i never blamed him for the econmy going down, just for not doing the right things to make it better,..I can assure you the fact that low rates leave people few places to invest and have a chance to have their money grow is the reason the market is up.. Historically the market is relatively consistent over the long haul if you leave your money there. It's pretty easy to look good when you take over when things can't get any lower ,no matter what you do they will get better. But is the Economy better or is it still sick.. That to me is the bottom line and i feel sure it is not well because over bloated debt, international instability and over regulation . Things like regulatory relief and incentive to produce significant energy sources that do not behold us to savage societies would be a great place to start..

Ok... Be honest Jack. Seriously. Do you really think anyone is going to believe you weren't one of the "OBAMA RUINED THE ECONOMY!!!" people back in 2009? Remember, this is the interweb.... If I had the time to waste I could do some searching.... so be honest.

I don't think you're wrong about the rest of it, except you're possibly misjudging the improvement increased investment in the market could have long term. The market may be going up because people can't put their money anywhere else, but that money equals capital which the companies can theoretically use to make improvements in their manufacturing (or whatever their business is).

You don't take "minors", or majors for that matter, in GRADUATE school.
