I'm Cheerin the Fall of the DOW!

[MikeStanart]

I'm so glad my mom took her money out of stocks a month ago.

 

[MikeStanart]

It capped out at -790 a min ago. Back to -755

For those of you cheering this on, it just shows that you don't have a pot to piss in and are happy to see others who DID work their asses off and amount to something, be brought down to your obvious level of failure.

Celebrating honest, hard-working people losing their life's savings says much more about you, than anything else.

It's obviously a shame this is happening, it's not like we're the ones who caused it. You can take your moral high ground and try to piss on the rest of us, but who among us didn't see this coming? At least let us have our "we told you so!" moment. We all know it has to get much worse before it gets better.

Oh look what the republicans and democrats have done to this nation. I wonder when they are starving in the streets will they continue to vote along party lines.

i'm not cheering "honest, hard-working people losing their life's savings" you dolt. when did i ever say it was a good thing for people to lose their savings? my level of failure? maybe you haven't kept up with the posts, but my household is self sufficient for at least a year. maybe if people weren't so busy working their asses off for the almighty dollar and actually took a second to think about their own precarious position in life, it would be different.

what if you were heavily invested into the market and it was booming? would you be cheering? or would you condem the meteroic rise of the stock market because it wasn't benefitting everyone? what about the hard working people who didn't rely on the stock market for wealth? would you be so concerned about those souls?

This is a tragic event for many people, instead of flaunting our "I told you so" message, how about we continue to press the importance of Ron Paul's message to other people? We already have leverage in a conversation. We were right before, maybe they will be more willing to listen to us in the future?

Attacking eachother within the Ron Paul community is not helping this movement.



simma down, peeps.

Another rare time I disagree with you LE.

I am sure my 401(k) is getting wiped out as we speak. And I wouldn't say I am cheering, but deep down I am glad to see this because the only thing that will wake people up is pain, be it physical pain, financial pain whatever.
I do not celebrate people losing their jobs, I do celbrate what I see as a necessary step to us having any chance of saving this country. This will get people to stop watching NASCAR for 5 minutes and take notice to what is going on in this country.

simma down, peeps.

I think the flaunting is just taking place here, amongst our own. I know I am taking a much more subtle approach with others in person who need further convincing.

agreed im not happy, folks may start to panic

 

[DFF]

Looks like the Plunge Protection Team is at work...right before the DOW almost broke -800...it then increased by +100.

The FTSE is down almost 8%.

I'd be cheering too, if only I were just sitting on a whole potful of deep "out of the money" put options, futures contracts and LEAPS.

 

[Ninja Homer]

I agree, we will have one....but please, don't cheer it. You don't want to hope for something with this. I know this will happen but I'm praying with every ounce of my being it doesn't.

There hasn't been a positive side of the collapse identified....praying for a collapse to "start over" isn't positive.

I don't cheer it. I will continue to look at the positive side of everything. I guess it's just my nature.

I don't pray for a collapse, I pray for the end result of a country where I, my family, my son, people of this country, and future generations are free. If there's a collapse that leads to that end result, so be it. The current collapse is a result of actions in the past, so there isn't a thing I can do about it, one way or the other. All I can do is stay positive in the present to attain my vision of the future.

I don't cheer other people's misery. I guess in the end, this is where I differ most from conservatives.

How transcendental of you.

Your avatar has always been relevant. I applaud you for that.

But your use of the word transcendental is rather inaccurate. I have never condoned or followed Kant.

 

[ghengis86]

was everybody cheering when the stock market was booming? or were you bemoaning the misery of people who were not invested in the market or those without a job? i guess that's where I differ from most hypocrites
