Dow rises 400+ points while Delta axes 30,000 workers...

...Yeah, Georgie, it's all looking rosy.

1. Any economy looks great if you loan more money, but where does it end?

[louis-t]

2. Dow will be back down in a few days.

Just like when Fed printed $260 bil the other day. They're just pissin' in the wind now.

[skids]

3. So go buy some stock...

...so we can get on with crashing it again and steal your money.

[onehandle]

4. Rich people are better than everybody.

Bush kills Middle Class. Film at 11.

[magellan]

5. They're joyful the Fed is leveraging the future of this nation

...so they can play with money a while longer. Idiots.

[LSparkle]

6. They're just begging for class warfare ...

It's becoming incredibly obvious that that's what this all is.

Except we little guys aren't fighting back ...

[deadmessengers]

7. Delta is NOT cutting 30000 workers.

They're cutting 2,000, but to get 2,000 people to voluntarily accept a buyout, they had to offer the buyout package to 30,000 people.

...The three-sentence synopsis I saw mentioned nothing about the 2,000-employee target.
