Quote from vegasoul:
yeah..that's the american spirit..
the sort of naiveness and optimism that I like about americans..
I especially like the part about "business and moral" leadership..
you must be refering to enron , bush administration and how everybody in the world is rip-off by greenspan and his banker friends.
but come to think of it, without the support from patriotic and faithful people like you, they wouldn't have succeded in their endeavors anyway...
p.s. my nick comes from the obscure techno band, vegasoul, really special..ain't it?

Hey, you forgot about Jeff Winnig at Global Crossing, Bernie Ebbers at WorldCom, Martha Stewart, Dick Grasso, Dennis Kozlowski, Arthur Andersen, Adelphia, Xerox ( they overstated revenues to the tune of a mere $3 billion ) and a few others . . .

One point I forgot to make b4, is that rates can go lower from their present levels. Heck, rates can go to ZERO, believe it or not!
10 Yr in Japan is at 1.35 and here its 4.35.
one last point, with everyone and their brother thinking/forecasting higher rates, isn't their a chance thier wrong?
Just a thought
