Why care what the politicians do? Capitalists depending on Politicians, Jesus where did all the real capitalists go? A capitalist should never require politicians to do anything for their sake of success. A real capitalist utilizing all the tools available to them on this planet, will succeed regardless of others decisions.

Even now as we are reading and posting, our brokers could have gone bust, their clearing banks even more bust and their CEOs ona flight to Bolivia.
And once you are informed, it's too late.
