The kind of faith that leads me to stuff money in mattresses.
One thing to remember is that even the government can't destroy American business over night. While it can destroy the value of the dollar fairly quickly, it can't take out the ability for good companies to make a profit as easily.
During times of inflation (which may be coming) one good place to put your money is in a well run solid business that is free to raise prices with inflation.
Interesting thought I just had:
I find it funny that the same group of people who mock Slamz and I for our comments on the media's role in this crisis earlier are now supporting Jon Stewart and the CNBC-bashing -- claiming they had a role in this crisis. Interesting...
(I'm not saying Grieve is in this group, but you're all basically the same as Grieve without the British accent)
PS Grieve, the Off Topic section is no longer for political commentary. Damn brit
"Hamilton is really a Colossus to the anti republican party. Without numbers he is an host within himself. They have got themselves into a defile where they might be finished but too much security on the republican part will give time to his talents and indefatigableness to extricate them. We have had only middling performances to oppose to him. In truth when he comes forward there is nobody but yourself who can meet him. His adversaries having begun the attack he has the advantage of answering them and remains unanswered himself. For God's sake take up your pen and give a fundamental reply to Curtius and Camillas" - Thomas Jefferson to James Madison
