I mean, the rough ridin' Dow was at it's highest point today since December 2007. You think those mother fuckers think the fix is in? Get the eff out of here with at that stupid crap.
Wall street (aka Barack street) is clearly in on the fix, too.
The rough ridin' audacity, it's mind boggling. The largest institutional investors in the WORLD don't seem to find any issue with the numbers. Yet, Jack Welch is spouting off.
Let's examine why someone like Jack Welch would say something so obviously full of rough ridin' crap:
1. Capital Gains taxes
2. Estate taxes
Those are the ONLY meaningful things in the short time that remains in Jack Welch's life. His personal life has been a train wreck, and he no longer has the pleasure of leading a kingdom at GE. He's a man at the end of his days, grasping to hang onto the only things he has left.
