The Reason Why The Stock Market Is Going Down

The reality is the market is going down because it is a bear market, that is why it is going down. The market is going down because the U.S. Economy is in a recession and there is nothing the Federal Reserve can do about it unless it wants to lose its credibility or acknowledge that the economy is much weaker than they thought.

National Debt: There Is Going To Be A Crisis Along The Way

Barack Obama might have already doubled the national debt since he was sworn in. We doubled the debt, doubled it! We added as much debt under Obama as we did from George Washington to George W. Bush.

There is no way we can continue on this tranjectory.
