Just remember smart wealthy people will alway find a place to make the maximum return on their investment even if they have to go overseas. It is a global market place. We need to make it more profitable for them invest here than abroad.


Look a Buffet and Gates. They continue to look overseas when there is no good values in the at home.

Protected from what?

The Pension Benefit Guarantee Program. :toung: which the Bush administration "forced to move from mostly safe bonds into 45% equity holdings, a move that occured just before the stock market really headed down." Market Watch, "The True Cost of America's Bail-Outs" August 12, 2008.

Employer to Employee: "We'll just move your pensions into our stock to keep those short-timers from messing up our company. It keeps you in a job, right?"
