Fortunately, we can still make money investing overseas. The Europeans have been doing it for decades. Money can be made here, but I'd hate to be reliant on a strong US recovery if all we get is repetitive oscillation between two loser parties.
Viva le Independence (Independents)
Guys, the Independent party has a wide open door with a fresh welcome mat. No reason to hope the Republicans are any different than they were when they blew their majority. Come on in, I'll warm the coffee for you.
But you see the Indy's are part of the problem Chris mentions. If you blow back and forth with the wind based on who is prettier or talks a good game in each election then you can't move forward toward a goal. All you can do is waver back and forth. And as a country we have to have a goal to reach, on every issue. History is only made when there is a goal, after you lose your goals, you simply lurch through life. At this point we have two parties with no true goals, unless you count the Utopian Socialism of the Dem leaders a goal. So the only real goal out there is winning the next election, on our backs. If the Reps can set some true goals like they did in 94 then they can get back on track and tae the country with them.
