I agree. They don't know a bear market. The concerning thing is the amount of direct manipulation of the market by the US govt. There was a little known bill passed that allows the gov't to directly buy up the market. It's not the plunge protection team but one passed subsequently. You have...

Watching from the far north, aka Canada, I have been saddened by the move to a police state in the USA. As a youngster I dreamed of moving to Hawaii. Now, because it is part of the USA that is no longer a choice. You might consider Costa Rica. I've heard it is nice and with a concern for the...
