Obama wants the nation to fail given that he attended a Muslim school as a youth and believes the only way to help Islam defeat the Great Satan is to destroy it from within with the help of his extreme leftest buddies who wish the same fate for the United States - economic collapse in order to usher in a Communist Utopia! Even the Supreme Court Justices are in on the act by tying up attorney Berg so his charges Obama is illegal cannot see the light of day - most of the justices are true communists and want to see a new order that exculdes capitalism. Obama knows his buddies are nuts, but the death blow to the U.S. economy will still achieve his objectives. REMEMBER HE BOWED TO THE DEFENDER OF THE MUSLIM FAITH because he is a true Muslim.

The economy follows stocks -- a fact overlooked by the absolute majority of investors and their advisors.
