Scott Allan's World

I thought the bailout was “The Answer”.  Stocks have done nothing but tank since they passed the plan.  It’s a good thing I’m not going to retire for another 25 years.    I won’t even look at my 401k.   I can’t.

With the nation in an economic crisis, Barack Obama is leading in the polls.  I do not understand this at all.   Any reasonable person would understand that Obama’s financial plan would harm the economy, not help it.  Yet somehow Obama is leading all polls regarding the economy.  He has absolutely NO economic experience.  None.  No business or executive experience either. Yet people think he is more qualified than John McCain just because he is not a Republican for some reason.    Make sure you are not just voting for Obama because taxing the rich will make you feel better or that you are somehow punishing George Bush.   Punishing the rich will punish everybody.   We need investment in the markets, not in the government.  We’ve already seen what the government can do with your money. Don’t give your money to Barney Frank and Nancy Pelosi.    They really did a great job “saving” Wall Street last week. We just bought a $700 billion hammer.
