Dow tops 17,000 on strong jobs report

At this point in the Clinton, and Bush II regimes, the DJIA was at an all-time high as well.

It's obvious who the ZHers are in this thread and there are more than one.

Same thing happened in the 30s. Government spending kept the stock market rising for years but unemployment still hovered around 20% up until the build up to World War II. This is what 85 billion in tax dollars buys every month. A transfer of wealth from us to those people who are invested in the stock market. So the rich get richer and the poor.....well that's going to be us before long because we don't have near enough money invested in the market.

So now you can absolutely see who are the stupidest people of all by reading this thread. Their understanding of the market and the economy shows why they vote and, at the same time, why they shouldn't be voting.
