During this extreme time in our depression-era 21st century, it's time to unbury that mayonaise jar full of cash and begin the stimulus of the faltering economy.  Some new bargains to be had are:

1) General Motors, trading today at nearly  $4.00  per share ( thats right, four dollars) on news of a pending shortage of cash and likely bankrupcy protection within 4 months.

2) Circuit City, which announced on the heels of last weeks job cuts, it has filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy and will close all stores within months.  Current store stocks will be liquidated for fractions of price, just in time for Ho-Ho-humdrum holidays. Todays stock closed at $00.10  Thats right, ten CENTS!

3) Midway Games ( yes, the makers of PacMan and bazillions of casino games)  trading today at$00.43 a share ( forty-three cents guys)

4) Six Flags, Inc.  Our local entertainment venue in Georgia, with sky-high prices and longest lines since the gas shortage, is trading at $00.28 per share ( twenty eight CENTS)

Sounds like time to reap the benefits of stock market bailouts and invest in transportation, electronics and entertainment.

I heard that Ryans is in bankruptcy as well, and just think 30 years ago people who had Ryans stock were being made instant millionaires, and now they have to depend on a Hog Farmers Convention to keep their doors open.

I don`t think Little Pigs Barbecue will let them back, I hear they lost a large amount of their business the only time they had a meeting there.

They say that in a few weeks the earth will end too, but I stand skeptical.  The earth can't end, I haven't gotten my new tax assessment yet.

I have heard on the Rick is Wrong Show that when you do get your new assessment the world as you know it will end, but they have been wrong more often than right, so I don`t take much stock in what they spread around.

Not likely unless you are counting on all the wealthy people you hate for having made their fortune have it stolen and redistributed to you before the market picks up. I enjoy the anger of those who did not do their homework and learn to earn aimed at those who did and have all the toys, and vacations they want. This is America where you can invent something stupid and make a million; remember pet rocks? Get on it and you too can have your wealth redistributed by 2009.  LOL

Maybe McCain is taking some time with his family having a cold one. He's earned it. I would venture a bet he will be doing something on Veterans Day. I hope it is being appreciated for his 5 years at the "Hanoi Hilton".

Hate is a good thing in it's own way.  It's good to hate those who raped the public by stealing their 401(k) funds. It's good to hate those who falsely inflated the housing market values in order to pad their profits also raped from Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac. It's good to hate those CEO's, COO's and Directors who get golden parachutes while workers with 30 years get pinkslips and lose their homes.  It's good to hate conglomerates who make it impossible for elderly to afford their drugs while making exhorbitant profits.  It's good to hate those who are getting government bailouts/ handouts of MY hard-paid moneys on top of the extorted profits they already got while juggling numbers and lying to stock-holders for years.  Its good to hate greed, because the Bible tells me so.

I'll look forward to my checkMoney mouth

Not only is it good to hate, it is a good time to do something about the present situation , and make damn sure we have safe guards in place so it will never happen again.

Those who are "against" Obama have yet to see if he'll use Executive priveledge and enact laws to save the citizens and this nation, who are the real victims of these crimes. The entire nation has become victim to about a few hundred individuals who , in essence, collapsed the US economy.  Talk about terrorism.

OMG get off your self righteous soap box and go make more money so you can pay your cable bill. But wait once again Wyatt has kick himself in the butt. A Preston supporter says this, "It's good to hate those CEO's, COO's and Directors who get golden parachutes". OMG do you think before you hit the send button? ROTFLMAO You forgot CFO's and County Administrators LOL LOL I might laugh myself to near nirvana over this post. Where is SSHM when you want him. Fannie Mae ??????????? Read this and weep or use actual facts to refute this. That's FACTS not your personal angry socialist opinion. <G>

You will never convince the Republican party of that, they think just like the kings, and royalty, of the Roman empire.

Yuppers, and I stand by it.  Getting paid for being illegally terminated is different from getting paid by bankrupting a company and still reaping millions while standing with your hand out for a government freebie.  I didn't include council members who padded their own interests or directed property deals ninnie.  I spoke about the actual country's issues about  banks, real estate, stocks and oil profitteers who created and still create the mess we're facing. The thing I weep for is the elderly losing their homes, the joblessness at a 14 year high and growing by the week, the likelihood of massive corporate bankruptcies which the TAXPAYERS will be saddled with.

  Joey is another issue I'll let you giggle about in your own little brain, Bill.

I have a question about lthat 14-year jobless rate. If I subtract 14 from 2008, I wind up with 1994. And 1994 was the second full year of the Clinton administration.

Does that mean the jobless rate during the first seven years, 10 months of the BUSH Administration has been LOWER than the rate Mr. Clinton achieved during his "booming economy" years?
