GREAT news out of California

Quote from Scataphagos:

Was that when Obama firmly planted his lips firmly on the Saudi King's ass?

LOL...nah, way before...that just sealed the deal with a kiss!

California is a BLUE state. Of course Obama and Congress will take care of them. Just like they are taking care of the UAW and Democratic donor dealerships at the expense of you and me.

And the GO's reflect exactly that.

Quote from S2007S:

I have zero worries about CA, they will be handed the billions they need to get by during this crisis just like everyone else being bailed out.

Quote from gigsup:

News out this morning, saying "Fed to determine why rates are going up."

Sounds like the ammo dump just blew up.

This sounds similar to the "conundrum" that Greenspan experienced during 2004.

Quote: "I complained in June 2004 to Vincent Reihart, director of the Division of Monetary Affairs at the Federal Reserve Board. I was perturbed because we had increased the federal funds rate, and not only had yields on the ten-year treasury notes failed to rise, they'd actually declined." --excerpt from "The Age of Turbulence"

This is the opposite of the 2004 conundrum, which was at the beginning of a multi-year bull market. Caveat Emptor.

I was watching the local news in LA last night ... they are doing away with Summer School and closing several state parks to save a few dollars. Oh and by the way got my car registartion for this upcoming year up 76% over last year which was up 200% because of the last emergency .... in the words of Col Troutman "Its over Johnny.... Over!"

Just goes to show you that politicians won't stop spending unless they have no source of more money. Since Washington can print money and raise taxes without our approval I don't see how we are going to get them to stop spending unless we pass a tax payer revolt constitutional ammendement.

Speaking of summer school. I've been hearing that schools in NY may charge for summer school and also not all schools will offer all classes, meaning your kid might have to attend two schools to complete two different classes.

Move to Nevada...then your car registartion won't start.

Exactly. The only way to control the beast is to starve it first. Stosh
