2. Flight to Quality???

McDonald's did create all those manufacturing jobs....

3. Well . . . .

Frankly, I think that's good news. At least those companies are American, and Coke is actually a manufacturing company that produces a real, 100% tangible product!

I am so tired of Wall Street coming up with newfangled shiny objects in which to invest other people's money - - junk bonds, then the dot-com insanity, then worthless subprime paper. All of these mass get-rich-quick schemes have done nothing but send the dollar into a death spiral and caused the U.S. to go further and further into debt.

As Barack has said, ENOUGH!

Or rather, most Americans are addicted to Coke and McDonald's. Thankfully, I kicked the habit.

Agribusiness is depending on you to do your part. Not to mention Novartis et al.
