In reply to the discussion: DOW DOWN 6 points right now---ROFLOL! [View all]Bengus81
(6,928 posts)24. LOL...well since this BS tax cut was for nothing but the rich and Wall St. you do miss the irony...
I'm not saying a 6 point drop signals the next Great Depression but I find it ironic that the DOW has dropped since Mon about 120 points in advance of them knowing full well this SHAM bill would pass. I was guessing we might see some blockbuster 300 point day upward. And...given the fact that all Donnie boy can do is talk up the stock market I find it very ironic.

They are conning themselves if they think the market going up is a good thing.
