How Confident Are You Feeling These Days? And, Just Do The Right Thing!

I guess if you work for J.P. Morgan you are feeling pretty good but if you are one of the half million losing their jobs each month maybe not so much. (Unemployment in Detroit is 15%.)

Was listening to the JPM CFO (forget your name)this week talking about how great things are...was wondering just how they made those profits.........it really wasn't clear....he was really good at telling the "No Story." Of course, he was being interviewed by a Softball player...if you get my drift. (One of those reporters who Loves The Obama Administration) The Forget Your Name JPM CFO didn't offer any observations about the economic condition of the country (you know, the rest of us - he just stayed on the Obama Administrations Message.)

I would guess that someone who is qualified to be CFO of JPM could make some interesting suggestions regarding what impacts the rest of the country but......of course, he didn't. Sort of DISGUSTING. And they wonder why there is tremendous distrust of Wall Street and growing distrust of The Obama Administration - Is there a Czar for the Unemployeed? If not, maybe we NEED one. What's one more Czar more or less? Who do all the Czars report to anyway? The President? Really?

Oh, did I mention that the COL (Cost of Living) for those on Social Security has been canceled for this year -just like the increases for Congress, oops, sorry, they get their raises. Mmmm - just doesn't seem right does it? Maybe we need to look at more things through the prism of "Does It Seem Right or Do The Right Thing." Yes, I like - "Just Do The Right Thing." So, Congress, do the RIGHT THING re COL and Social Security.

That is my 2 cents worth for now........More later......rrtyler@gmail.com
