I personally am more disturbed with the manipulation by the government with QE2, bailouts etc. I think these conditions effect the average invesotr more because you cannot make an informed decision when the Fed and Congress put thier fingers in the pie, changing the landscape. The really bad thing is that many of these programs have not had the desired effects as well, so it was just a waste of tax payer dollars.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492542366661862113.post-78956308018206942562010-10-10T20:57:56.365-07:002010-10-10T20:57:56.365-07:00LOL Herb
