SPIN THAT.

AND I'm done trying to explain very simple concepts to people who quite frankly are INCAPABLE of understanding them.

Here is a link:

Dow Jones Industrial Average (1900 - Present Monthly) - Charting Tools - StockCharts.com

and here is a pretty picture to EXPLAIN.....Look at 1980 to 2000 and then 2000 to 2012.......if you think we're growing this economy you're a **** FOOL.......AND for those who look at Reagan as evil, lets not forget that 1980 to 2000 included quite a few REAGAN years......

You proved my point. One month before the election no one knew Obama was going to be elected, yet the market dropped almost 2000 points in that time. If you are saying it dropped 7000 points from that figure, you would still be incorrect because the market never went down to 4500. I don't understand you and I don't appreciate being called a **** FOOL because I disagree with you! What happened to the free exchange of ideas?
