- Today on Wall Street, the Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed above 10,000 for the first time this year as “U.S. stocks approached their highest levels since Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.’s bankruptcy sent the global economy into a tailspin.” In fact, the index is up 13 percent since the start of the year.
When asked about the surging markets, House Minority Leader John Boehner grumbled at the news. “[You're] certainly not talking to the American people,” if you’re placing any significance on the 10,000 mark, Boehner contended:
“The American people understand that unemployment is almost at 10 percent, they understand that they might be next so there are concerns about the economy,” Boehner said. [...]
Boehner said the stock market’s rebound is a reaction to the extreme shock from earlier this year, but it says little more than that.
“At the end of the day, the American people aren’t looking at the stock market in terms of putting food on the table,” Boehner said. “They want jobs, and they want them now.”... Read full article »

John Boehner is a disgrace, a typical bought and paid for corrupt Republican. Boehner is a big business lobbist whore, he's a bum.View thread
We are just now getting to the point where the businesses and small banks who are caught by this are undergoing foreclosures and bankruptcies. Until the economy improves to the point that banks are making a number of business and development loans again and businesses are comfortable with an increase in work that does not leave them vulnerable to these losses, they will not be hiring. At that point, we will be able to say the economy is improving.
The man is so rich and intelligent he spends money in places to keep welcome his overall acceptance and cover his covert agenda. Then empowers that agenda and the safety of his future 'world' with money at the same time. So much money, in the wrong hands is very dangerous. He also knows exactly where to strategically place himself in government and societies, always at the side of the leaders of world economies.
Maybe its too early for martial law and riots in the cities. Although this could very well be what they will depend on to lower American population during the desecration of the American Nation.
I guess all I can say imo, is to enjoy the thought that the Dow surge has something to do with the economic state of our nation while you can. It's not going to be there long.
It could hit 20,000. But without JOBS it doesn't really matter does it?
And he has done NOTHING since taking it to revers the trend.
When you don't have a clue what you're talking about, just shut your mouth so we don't see the flies buzzing around it.
